We fast from things that distract us from God, and return our attention to positive priorities.
We give alms because we are inspired by God’s love of each of His creations. We respond with charity (helping others in their need) and justice (being transformed ourselves, in order to transform the world into the Kingdom of God).
We pray to grow close to God, the source of our strength and the inspiration for how we live in the world.
