For Catholics not understanding the Mass, this 2012 talk is the best explanation. “Yeah, that means you bishops, priests, nuns, and laypeople who think you understand.”
Douay-Rheims, 1st Epistle of St. Paul to the Corinthians, Chapter 2
[9] But, as it is written: That eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither hath it entered into the heart of man, what things God hath prepared for them that love him.
[10] But to us God hath revealed them, by his Spirit. For the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
Mass is a sacrifice, not a meal, not a gathering. Mary did nothing and said nothing at the foot of the cross. We say nothing at the Latin Mass. Only the priest speaks and altar boys respond, readying us.
Below is a sung High Mass in 2002 at Saint-Nicolas-du-Chardonnet, the church the SSPX “squatted.”

For the Latin Mass in the San Francisco Archdiocese, which extends far beyond the city, go here (SF's Cordileone is supportive) https://www.tlmsf.org/Nearby%20Masses/ In Sacramento, there are only two locations: St. Stephen the First Martyr (FSSP) and St. Michael in Carmichael (SSPX).
