WHAT CATHOLIC PARENTS NEED TO TEACH THEIR CHILDREN

Third Commandment

“Remember to keep holy the Lord’s Day.”

 Commands:1.    Catholics must participate in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass on all Sundays and Holy Days of Obligation2.    If a person is sick or it is impossible to go to Mass, one is excused.3.    Any baptized Catholic over the age of reason (7) who deliberately chooses not to attend Mass on Sunday or a Holy Day of Obligation commits a mortal sin.4.    The Sabbath is a day of rest. We are supposed to abstain from all unnecessary work5.    We should strengthen our family, cultural, social, and religious lives on this day.
