Every summer I put a short announcement in my parish newsletter with the aim of encouraging parishioners to make the effort to find a church to attend when they are on holiday. Thanks to the internet it is now easier than ever to locate Mass times and parishes near to where one may be staying. I try to make it clear that, while it is important that we fulfil our obligation to be at Mass each Sunday, there are also numerous spiritual benefits which can be received when we experience worship in different places, cultures and contexts.
