During Mass, individuals can offer their offerings (words and actions) to Jesus and ask Him to apply them to their personal intentions. Here are some examples of the words and actions which can be offered:

• All the joys and sufferings in one's vocation (Holy Orders, Single Life, Religious Life or Married Life)

• A deed that one has done through the use of one's talents 

• The joyful and sometimes tedious aspects of human life (going to school,  going to work, cleaning the house, going shopping, going to a doctor appointment, spending time with family and friends, etc.) 

• The time spent prayerfully studying one's faith   

• The time spent piously praying devotions

• The time spent in a Holy Hour with the Eucharistic Christ

• The time spent worshiping Jesus during the pious devotion of Benediction   

• The deed of doing penitential acts, such as abstinences, fasts, reparations and charitable giving
