I know most of the Catholics go to church to pray on their birthdays. We practice this in my family so I grew up being told to go to the church and thank God for giving us another year. How about you guys? Do you go to church on your bdays to pray? Or do you just pray silently at home and thank God for letting you live another year here on earth?

Yes, I go to Church during my birthdays, and with my family. This is a good practice to thank God for giving us another year through the highest form of prayer which is the Holy Mass.

I always make it a point to go to church on my birthday or my mom will have my head. Kidding. Anyway, I make offerings and stuff because I always want to share whenever it's my birthday. I give thanksgiving prayers at the church and before my day ends at home.

heheh..love to give offerings to the church also but I think I won't be able to do that these days because I don't have enough money. Thanks for sharing :)
