from wikiHow - The How to Manual That You Can Edit
Sometimes it can be hard to behave during mass, whether you go to a Catholic school or you go to church with your family. This article can help you learn how to behave during mass.
Steps
- Arrive on time. Some churches have later masses if you aren't a morning person.
- Go to mass with an open mind. Don't assume that it will be boring, as that may make you grumpy throughout the service.
- Understand what is happening. It may be easier to behave if you know what is going on. Follow along in the Misalet.
- Sit, stand, or kneel at appropriate times.
- Be quiet and respectful. Talk to friends after mass, not during.
- Sing along and respond to the prayers.
- Leave after the mass has completely ended, not after communion.
Tips
- Watch what the priest (or leader) is doing.
- If you don't know what to do next, watch for cues (when to stand, kneel, etc.) from other people attending.
- When receiving communion (a wafer the pastor offers) say amen immediately after.
