One can make a spiritual communion at any Mass. Or even anytime outside of Mass.

My Jesus, I believe that you are in the Blessed Sacrament. I love you above all things, and I long for you in my soul. Since I cannot now receive you sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. As though you have already come, I embrace you and unite myself entirely to you; never permit me to be separated from you. Amen.
At Thy feet, O my Jesus, I prostrate myself and I offer Thee repentance of my contrite heart, which is humbled in its nothingness and in Thy holy presence. I adore Thee in the Sacrament of Thy love, the ineffable Eucharist. I desire to receive Thee into the poor dwelling that my heart offers Thee. While waiting for the happiness of sacramental communion, I wish to possess Thee in spirit. Come to me, O my Jesus, since I, for my part, am coming to Thee! May Thy love embrace my whole being in life and in death. I believe in Thee, I hope in Thee, I love Thee. Amen.
I wish, Lord, to receive you with the purity, humility and devotion with which your most holy Mother received you, with the spirit and fervour of the saints.

what is a spiritual communion?
St. Thomas Aquinas described spiritual communion as “an ardent desire to receive Jesus in the Most Holy Sacrament and in lovingly embracing Him.”

In a spiritual Communion, we, with contrite, humble hearts, ask our Lord to come to us in the same way He would if we were able to receive the Sacrament.

This can be done as often as one likes, informally in one’s own words or through one of the traditional prayers which appear below.

There are many different prayer for receiving spiritual communion, one I received from my priest is:

I believe that You, O Jesus, are in the most holy Sacrament.
I love You and desire You.
Come into my heart.
I embrace You.
Oh, never leave me.
May the burning and sweet power of Your love, O Lord
Jesus Christ, I beseech You, absorb my mind that
I may die through love of Your love,
Who were graciously pleased to die through love of my love.
Amen.
 
Beautiful posts.

THANK YOU !

As a Protestant, I wasn’t aware that Catholics believed this way.
