Questions Catholics Are Asking
General Questions
The Catholic Encyclopedia, as its name implies, proposes to give its readers full and authoritative information on the entire cycle of Catholic interests, action and doctrine. What the Church teaches and has taught; what she has done and is still doing for the highest welfare of mankind; her methods, past and present; her struggles, her triumphs, and the achievements of her members, not only for her own immediate benefit, but for the broadening and deepening of all true science, literature and art -- all come within the scope of the Catholic Encyclopedia.

AmericanCatholic.org -A Walk Through the Mass: A Step-by-Step Explanation by Thomas Richstatter, O.F.M.
This "walk-through" explanation of the Mass will shed light on why we do what we do at Mass. I think these explanations will be helpful for the great numbers of Catholics who attend Mass regularly but don't always remember the reasons behind the various actions of the Mass. They may be especially helpful for catechumens (those preparing to enter the Catholic Church) and visitors from other churches who are not familiar with the Catholic Church.
