^* Holy Days of Obligation for Catholics carry the same obligation for Mass attendance as Sundays. This means failure to attend Mass on a Holy Day of Obligation constitutes a sin, and reception of the Sacrament of Reconciliation would be required before approaching communion for a Catholic who has failed in this obligation.
