Answer

In the Catholic Church, Holy Communion is reserved for baptized Catholics who are in a state of grace (free from mortal sin) and properly disposed to receive the Eucharist. If you are not Catholic or are Catholic but not able to receive Communion, we invite you to come forward with your arms crossed over your chest to receive a blessing from the priest. This is a beautiful way to participate in the Communion Rite.
