Forums - General Discussion - Do you attend church weekly? Yearly?

I go three times a week. That's standard. If you count doing something for your religion as a day then it can be as many as 4 or 5.

thanks very much, been looking around the forums for a while, didn't even realize that was my first

I used to go two times a month untill I was about fourteen, I don´t regret it at all, it was a good experiance and I think at least s a kid you do learn a lot... even if its just to sit still for an hour and listen to somebody... I know dozens of people who can´t do that...

Oh and as I was 12 or so they made us go to the confession (yeah I´m catholic but my moms a protestant so I feel like both a little) but what kind of sins have you commited when your 12 ??? I had no idea what to say so I made some things up... then I really felt bad because I had lied to a priest and had a real sin to confess... 

Now I only go for funerals (I hate carrying coffins, had to do that about three time up till now and it really gets me down) but I also go to the occasional wedding which is fun (and the food is usually better)



 

 

 

When I was baptised and another time when my cousin was baptised. That's all. I'm not a religious person.

@superchunk: That is an interesting thought. I respect that. Although I would disagree with it because the Paul wrote in Hebrews 10:25 "And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage and warn each other, especially now that the day of his coming back again is drawing near."

This meeting does not necessarily mean church every Sunday. Just that a community should come together as God has always taught Family and community are very important. I would argue that as long as you are not a hermit and have regular gatherings with your family and community then you are fitting that verse.

To all of you who never go to church:

The Power of Christ Compels You.

JK... everyone is religious in a different way... some people who go to church aren´t that religious at all, others who never go are very religious...  



 

 

 

@ superchunk, fair enough. I wasn't trying to say you weren't "gathering together" or doing something wrong, but that this is the way that I meet with people of the same beliefs as myself.



Average how many times i have been in my life i would say around once every 7-8 years.
1 Wedding
1 Funeral - -not sure if it was a church but it was boring so it counts
1 With School - Damn Religious Studies lessons
1 Midnight Mass - Ex GF made me go and i didnt even get no wine.



Sorry to hear that you didn't get the wine. ^^ I am not Catholic so I don't know the traditions.



never been to church.
