So the past two years, tradition has been that we go to Christmas Eve church with whichever of my parents has us Christmas eve (to a Lutheran Church) and then to Christmas Mass with H's family the following day.
This year, H doesn't think we should go to Christmas Eve because it's not a Catholic Church. I keep trying to tell him that as long as we fill our "obligation" (still hate that word lol) to attend mass on Christmas, we're fine to also spend Christmas Eve service at my parent's church (also the church I grew up in).
Who is right here? As long as it's not impeding on our obligations, I don't see what's wrong with attending a Lutheran church once per year to celebrate the holiday with my family. We also do not go to communion at this service.
