[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Weekday Mass is not a substitute for the Sunday obligation so that's not an answer to your observations. [/b]

At our Church there's a fairly sizable group of retired/senior citizens who go daily. 
There are also groups that go (Legion of Mary, Widow/Widowers' Group, Moms' Group, AM Bible Study, etc) that go to Mass first then meet up afterwards.[/quote]

Interesting. Thanks. I didn't know that. Can you elaborate on why that is?[/quote]

Are you not Catholic?[/quote]

I am. When we were supposed to learn a weekday Mass isn’t a substitute for missing Sunday Mass? Maybe it’s one of those goes without saying things most people just know. I don’t know. There’s also a Saturday afternoon Mass, which I believe is a permissible substitute for Sunday Mass.[/quote]

You cannot be serious.  How Catholic can you be not knowing this?  The rule isn’t “go to church once a week on a day of your choosing.”

It’s not Saturday afternoon, it’s Saturday evening.  Basically after 4:00 pm, consistent with the Jewish tradition of the day beginning at sunset.
