Matthew 6; 6,7 reads: But when you pray, go into your private room and, after shutting your door, pray to your Father who looks on in secret will repay you. When praying do not say the same things over and over again as the people of the nations do.
So it is quite clear , Jesus was teaching his disciples what was expected when we pray to his Father Jehovah.
Having that in mind. Matthew 6: 9,10 is the example how to pray in these Words. " You must pray then , this way: " Our Father in the heavens, let your name be sanctified". Which means that God has a name that must be known and held sacred and be treated as holy, confirmed in Isaiah 42: 8 where God presents himself in these Words. " I am Jehovah. This is my name. "
Verse 10 reads: " Let your kingdom come. let your will take place, as in heaven, also on earth".
It is important to know that God's kingdom is His government that will undo all the harm that millenniums of human rule have done. It will provide: a perfect health for everyone, peace and security and a clean environment for our planet Earth. Read Daniel 2: 44
Let your will take place. God's will is and has always been, that mankind live forever on earth. Read Genesis 2: 15-17.
So the Lord's prayer is not a prayer to be repeated or rehearsed as a poem, but has a deep seated meaning for our future.
Psalm 37. 29 reads. " The righteous will possess the earth, and they will live forever on it. Adam and Eve had that possibility that they have rejected when they did no longer live up to God's requirements.
Jesus came on earth 2'000 years ago to redeem the human race from the curse of sin and death and to undo the damage caused by Satan.
So to answer your question of when " The Our father at mass is said. It is more important to understand the message of that prayer, which is God's name to be held sacred and to be treated as Holy, His kingdom, which is his government, and God's will is and has always been our everlasting life on earth.
John 17: 3 reads. " This means everlasting life , their coming to know you, the only true God, and the one whom you sent, Jesus Christ.
