Catholic Customs & Traditions

Spanning the seasons of Lent, Easter and to Pentecost, this booklet describes the rich heritage of customs and traditions long practiced by Catholics down the ages, up to today.

Shrovetide, ashes, pancakes, Mardi Gras, fasting, almsgiving, pilgrimage, special saints' days, simnel cake, palms, Easter eggs, Easter bunnies, Holy week, hot cross buns, processions - these are just some of the many fascinating traditional practices associated with the religious festivals. The liturgy in turn enriches their meaning, as we rediscover how faith and every day life are mutually supportive and instructive.
