Catholics And The HOLY COMMUNION. What's Your Opinion? by Laygos(m): 11:40am On Apr 12, 2015
"...Brothers and sisters, it is time 4 holy communion. The holy communion is 4 only catholics communicant who have prepared themselves 2 receive the holy communion, visistors from other denomination ar adviced 2 sit while singing and praying with us..."
The above or something similar 2 the above statements is what yu hear when yu worship in the catholic church.
For the sake of a research, i will like 2 know why visitors from other denomination not allowed 2 receive the HOLY COMMUNION when they worship in the catholic church. Contributions from the catholic faithfuls ar highly welcome.

Why do you want to know from a social media? Go to any parish and ask a priest there, they wl give u a clear response. Social media is not a school nor a course. The answer you will get here might even deceive u the more. Please visit catholic church and ask a priest. They listen to everyone. Thanks

Well said. But social media like this can still play that vital role in educating n enlightining ignorant minds.
Still, i will appreciate it if you can refer me to a site where i could possibly get answer. Thanks

To answer your question op, the holy communion in the catholic church is a sacrament that signifies the actual body and blood of our lord Jesus Christ. Other christian denominations do not agree to the fact that it is rather some say it's a mere representation of it. So before anyone can receive the communion he is expected to have faith in what he is about to receive. Non Catholics have the faintest idea of what our holy communion signifies hence it's only normal asking them not to receive until they come to its full knowledge and in faith accept what it represents.

Just to emphasize what you're saying.

Holy Communion is the body and blood of Christ. Some novice might misunderstand the word "signify" to mean "representation."

Great answer still.
