Not up to attending Mass/service?

Many so called Christians, even Catholics, only go to church once in a while or only on holidays, and some don't even go then. Some go weekly, but have days where they really don't feel like going to church? Why should you push through and go?


Obviously, nothing is impossible for God, but going to church makes His job of preparing you for Heaven and getting you to prepare others for Heaven easier. You will have help sharing His word by learning what His word even is.

1. It's when you need to go the most. My mom has had days where she just doesn't want to go to church, but she always does. I think it's God calling her to go to mass. My mom once had a dream where she had set her alarm and hit snooze several times, thinking, "I go to church every week. I can skip this once." Eventually, she woke up in real life and went to Mass. She usually feels like going to mass, but this dream taught her to always go.
2. You find a religious community. I am a Catholic and I always like seeing other people and somehow finding out they're Catholic, such as when my family prayed a rosary when she was dying and one of the nurses, who also happened to be Catholic, took a mini-break to pray with us. However, when you go to a Church, you find a lot of people who share your beliefs. In a Catholic Church, apart from a few visitors, everyone else is Catholic. Even in a protestant church, apart from maybe a few atheist visitors, you're still connecting with other people and with God. They are there for you when your faith is being tested, such as if your have cancer or a relative is dying, and you get to be there for them when you need it. The more often you attend Church, the more you can see these people, the closer you two are, and the more they will help you when you need it and vice versa.
3. You may find an opportunity to do something for yourself, the community, and God. If you go to church regularly, you may have different organizations you can join and different ways to help God's people. For instance, maybe an announcement will be made saying that the church needs volunteers for the soup kitchen they run. You might try volunteering and end up doing it frequently. You will be serving God's people using the place you learn about Him. 

I will find more reasons later. Have a good week!
