2.  You shall confess your sins at least once a year.

3.  You shall receive the sacrament of the Eucharist at least during the Easter season.

4.  You shall observe the days of fasting and abstinence established by the Church.

5.  You shall help to provide for the needs of the Church.
From the Catechism of the Catholic Church #2042-43

Peace be with you!
