Funeral Etiquette Question
We got a lot of mass cards from people. A LOT. Are we "supposed" to go to all of these masses? Is it rude if we don't?
Re: Funeral Etiquette Question
I know absolutely nothing about mass cards or the ettiquette that would go along with them. However, I can't imagine that anyone would feel slighted if you didn't go to each mass.
Is this something where you could go to a few and send thank you notes to the rest?

People pay to have a mass said in Dad's name and then we get a card saying so-and-so is having a mass said for him at this time.
It's a really nice gesture, but there are a few weekends where he has 3 being said for him - and there's like a six week stretch of Sundays with masses at different churches. I don't mind going to some of them, but I would like to go to our church sometimes too! I'm glad to know not going isn't a slight.

That's what I was thinking, but I just wanted to make sure. I wouldn't think you'd need to go to every single one, either. Maybe send a thank you card to the ones that you don't attend.
Another question: Are these special masses that are separate from the regular masses during the day? Or are they one of the regular masses that is just 'dedicated' to a specific person? What do they do during these masses to make them special?
I love the traditions in the Church and always want to learn more.
They're the regular masses, just dedicated to someone. There's nothing really extra special about the masses - they just mention who the mass is for during the rest of the intercessions.
We are sending thank you notes for all of them.
