Now before I pose the question let me say that both my grandmothers and mom are dead and burried so this has nothing to do with me but rather an interest in your answers. They are hidden and no one can read them so feel free to be quite honest.

Here is the question

It is this comming Sunday when many people celebrate the holiday known as Easter. Your aged grandmother has requested that you come to a mass on Sunday and sit with her. What is your reply?

I would not attend mass, but would go sit with her afterwards and have lunch with her. IF the conversation turns to why I did not attend, then witness what I have come to know through the story of Yeshua in the Hebrew setting.

I think I am finally at a place where I can say I would go with her and use it as an opportunity to share my beliefs with her. I would sit with her and be there for her, and then afterwards, I would treat her to lunch and explain why I don't agree with what was taught in the mass.

I voted that I'd use the occasion to share my beliefs with her...but that would depend on how much of a relationship we've already had. I can't imagine that I hadn't already done that to the point of her knowing exactly what I believe. In that case, there would be no reason to discuss theological positions anymore and I would be there simply because I love her and she asked me to be.

I would just go with my Grandmother and simply enjoy the day. She is in her 70s and well into her ways. At her age, I would not want to argue with her about religion. Plus she already knows what I believe.

I'd do exactly the same as Littlewonders ,go with her and then spend the rest of the day with her sharing my beliefs and the hope we have in Yeshua and just being there for her .

I would sit there with her and hold her hand. Honor your mother and father is much much higher on the scale of things than to ignore Easter.
