I. The purpose that the Savior gave His sacrifice on the Cross and its sacramental renewal in the Mass are synthesized in four. The goals that directly relate to God, worship or praise, and thanksgiving, infallible always occur fully with its infinite value, even without our contest, but not a single faithful attend, or attend distracted. However, the other two ends of the Eucharistic sacrifice, propitiation and petition, reversed in favor of men, and they are called fruits of the Mass, could be infinite because they are based on the merits of Christ, but in fact never received in such a degree that we apply as personal dispositions. To receive the fruits of the Holy Mass, the Church invites us to unite to the sacrifice of Christ in praise, thanksgiving, and supplication atonement of Jesus Christ, and to offer all our being and daily activities, along with the body of the Lord in the celebration of the Eucharist.
II. For us to get more and more fruit of the Holy Mass, our Mother, the Church wants us to attend, not as "strangers or silent spectators," but trying to understand it better and better, through the rites and prayers, participating in the action consciously holy, pious and active with mood straight, putting the soul in tune with the voice and collaborating with divine grace (Second Vatican Council, Constitution Sacrosanctum Concilium). Our internal participation, our union with Jesus Christ offered Himself, consists mainly of acts of faith, hope and love, and will be supported with external elements that are also part of the liturgy: the positions, and the recitation or singing parts in common. Our preparation begins with due punctuality, for nothing in the world more important than mass.
III. The Mass is the most pleasing to God that men can offer, so we have to have our soul to approach the sublime event. It is the ultimate occasion to give thanks for the many benefits we receive, to apologize for so many sins and failures of love ... and many material and spiritual things we need, the people you deal with. Our apostolate emerges stronger from mass. The minutes of thanksgiving complete the most important moment of our day. The Virgin was present at Calvary, and is present in the Mass, which is an extension of Calvary. Let us try to keep it in mind, and she will help us to participate in the Mass with greater piety and devotion
