[QUOTE="UPS Lifer, post: 326734, member: 9789"] My wife's uncle just retired as Bishop of Montana. I would think that he would tell you to follow the wishes of the parents. If the mother prefers that you take him to a Catholic church for Mass to meet the Sunday or Saturday evening obligation, I would respect her wishes. My wife grew up in Texas and has stated in the past that Baptists look down on Catholics. Don't shoot me....I have just heard this in conversation and am not passing judgement. I don't know anything about the Baptist religion so please forgive me if I am mistating the info! Here is the touchy situation. A 7 year old cannot be held responsible for not getting to mass. I would think that the burden of sin or responsibility then falls on the child's guardians usually the mother and father or God-Parents. I really think that it is wonderful that you are making a sincere effort to do the right thing! Hope this helps. There are Holy Days of Obligation - The next one is The Ascension. It is 40 days after Easter. [/QUOTE]
