Make the most of your church life with these manners in mind.

It's important to remember that going to Mass is a privilege that not all the faithful around the world can enjoy. This can be due to a political regime in a country, or to more personal issues, such as a debilitating illness. And as COVID also taught us, Mass attendance should never be considered a given.

Therefore, it's important to appreciate the great importance Mass has in your life, and that of your fellow parishioners.

With this attitude of appreciation for your church life in mind, it may be a good time for a refresher on some etiquette that makes Mass a rewarding experience for the whole family and other churchgoers. (We do appreciate that Mass and young children are not always the perfect combo, but modeling and teaching manners begins at a young age!)
