3rd Commandment- In Depth

“Observe the Sabbath day, to keep it holy”

As we all know, the Sabbath day, is Sundays (Saturdays in other Religions). During this day, we as Catholics are committed to go and visit God. Many people defy this Commandment. It is 1 hour of your day that you’re giving to God a week.  1/168 hours in a week. Why do people find doing this so hard?

Saint Thursday-St. Wulfric

1080 – 1154
Today, the feast day of St. Wulfric, is a day to remember the hermit and miracle worker that he was. He was extremely selfish and was a materialist himself, until one day, after meeting a beggar, he underwent a tremendous conversion into Christianity.

From then on, Wulfric kept performing miracles and prophesying until his day of death. We remember the works of this Saint on February 20th.

 

Attend Mass; Be a Catholic

Mass is a Holy Religious Sacrament, and as Catholics, we are inclined towards attending Mass in order to increase our relationship with God. It is Him who guides us to make moral decisions and choose between right and wrong.  It is one of God’s 10 Commandments to keep the Sabbath Holy (aka Sunday). It is important for us to live this law, and answer to it positively by going to Mass.
