Incense is called for four times during the Mass. At the entrance rite, the celebrant uses incense to cense the altar, and the congregation is already standing; then at the Gospel, the congregation is already standing to hear the Gospel proclaimed. When the gifts of censed, the congregation is sitting - not standing, they do stand if they are going to be incensed - out of respect, but otherwise, they are just sitting. The fourth time is at the consecration, when everyone is kneeling.

Do Catholics pray to God or does the pastor do it for them?
Catholics pray to God all the time. Their priest (who may or may not be their pastor) certainly prays for them as well, it is his job to stand at the altar and offer intercession for all of us, but his primary job is to offer the sacrifice of the Mass, which is the re-presentation of the Cross, just as Our Blessed Lord did on Holy Thursday. What it boils down to is the best prayer is that of Jesus and our prayers are only worthwhile to the extent that we join our prayer with His. It is not a matter of either or, it is both.

What each letter in prayer stand for?
In a religious context, the word "prayer" itself does not have a specific acronym where each letter stands for something. It is simply a term used to describe communication with a higher power or deity. However, in some contexts, "PRAYER" can stand for Praise, Repentance, Asking, Yielding, and Receiving, outlining the different aspects of prayer.
Is it right to kneel or stand for the intersessions?
lt depends upon the tradition of the church. Nothing in scripture says that it is 'wrong' to kneel for prayer, stand for prayer or sit for prayer. What is important is that you come to prayer in the right frame of mind. When I was brought up, in the church I attended the tradition was that we knelt for prayer. In my own church we sit for prayer, as most find this posture more comfortable so that one can concentrate on the prayer and not on ones creaky joints! When we spent some time in Norway in 2006, we wennt to a church where they sat for the hymns and always stood for the prayers. Traditionally during confessional prayers one knelt as this posture was accepted as more contrite -- but again, one can still kneel in a contrite position and not be partiularly contrite in one's heart. So it is the attitude to prayer that is important - not whether you sit, stand or kneel. If your church prefers one to the other then join in with the tradition. Otherwise do whatever you feel most comfortable.
