ever since i was a child, i never went to mass ever sunday. my mom and dad were not church going people, and i did not have friends who were, either. so i just sort of grew up without being used to going to church every sunday. it dwindled to once or twice a year, and until now, i still am not practicing it. this is not to say that i do not believe in God. i do. i pray/talk to Him every chance i get. i just do not go to church as regularly as religious folks do. how about you?

I used to when I was little, my grandmother and grandfather forces me to attend mass regularly on Sundays, and I usually dreaded those time, imagine having to wake up early and attend it. when I was in high school I almost attend every mass there is on the nearby church (which is by the way only few steps, maybe ten 30 steps away from us) not because I am religious that time, its just that I have a crush on of the helper of the priest and then when I go to college, I seldom go to chucrh, just when friends or bloc mates would ask me to go with them. and now. I think the last time was when my nephews was baptized.

My mother has inculcated in me to go to church often thus I go to sunday masses and sometimes I would go to baclaran to pray. It has become a practice already.

I try to attend to Sunday mass. It is the link between me and God. Without going to it I feel bad as if I have missed somehting. Yes I do feel sometimes that is a duty that I have to carry out. © ronaldinu 2008

Hi, Kayedanda! I don't go to mass regularly either. And I feel bad about that. It's just that, I have three children, 6-month old being the youngest. Before the time we can prepare ourselves and have dressed up, it really took us hours. On my dayoffs, I feel so lazy to get up that early and attend the mass. Whew!!! All this alibis... I feel guilty now... but I will try harder. Promise! Regards, Kayedanda! Happy posting!
