1. Obtain a Sunday Missal written prior to Vatican II, which has the Latin text alongside the English. I use My Sunday Missal by Fr. Stedman.
2. Before praying the Mass using the Missal, pray this short prayer, to unite your intentions with those of the Blessed Virgin Mary at the sacrifice of her Son at Calvary. The Mass is a sacrifice, not a social event. See this link for the prayer.
3. Pray the Mass, it is the most powerful prayer you can pray. Prayerfully read the text of the Missal, with the specific readings and prayers for that Sunday, known as the Proper of the Mass.
4. Very important, at the time of receiving Communion in the Mass, make your Spiritual Communion. And if you happen to be a Divine Will devotee, ask Jesus to enter your heart with His Real Life, as taught in the revelations to Luisa Piccarreta. The Real Life of Jesus in your heart is the same as His life in the Eucharistic Sacrament.
5. Additional note: I make the intention that the priest offering this Mass is St. Padre Pio.
