When you are attending Mass and other religious services, be very reverent when you stand up, kneel, and sit. Perform each action with great devotion. Be modest in your gaze, and do not turn your head this way and that to see who is coming or going. Out of reverence for that holy place, do not laugh or look around to see who is nearby. Try not to talk to anyone unless charity or a strict need requires it.... In short, behave in such a way that all the bystanders are edified and, because of you, are moved to glorify and love the heavenly Father.” St Padre Pio (letter to Anitta Rodote, July, 25, 1915)
