Attending Mass is a fundamental part of the Catholic faith, as it provides an opportunity for believers to come together and worship God. However, simply attending Mass is not enough – it is important to actively engage with the liturgy and apply its teachings to our daily lives. Journaling during Mass can help us to do just that, allowing us to reflect on the readings, the homily, and our own spiritual journey.

A Mass Journal is a journal used during Mass to help you pray, take note of what God is trying to tell you, and then continue reflecting on it. 

Faith Fuel: Reflections from Mass – Remember you what happened at Mass

It turns out Mass journaling can be a wonderful way to engage more deeply in prayer and participation at Mass. A Mass Journal can also be very helpful in prayer later. Maybe the priest said something in the homily, or you noticed something that stuck out in the readings. Making note of this in your journal, and then coming back to it in prayer later can make that prayer very helpful. It’s a way to help you understand what God is trying to tell you.
