Can a Catholic child from a split marriage receive Holy Communion if she is not in the habit of going to Church?

Whether or not you may receive Holy Communion depends on whether you are in a state of grace and properly disposed to receive Holy Communion (and a Catholic). Thus, if you are a Catholic child, and have been to confession recently and are not in a state of sin, and have already made your first Holy Communion, then you may receive Holy Communion. What gives me pause is your "not in the habit of going to Church". Missing a Sunday Mass or a Mass on any Holy Day of your own free will would put you in a state of mortal sin, and you would be unable to receive Holy Communion until you had been in to confession. Your best bet would be to give your local priest a call, make an appointment, and go down and have a talk with him, and make a good confession while you are there. The priest will be able to guide you as to how and when you make receive Holy Communion, and the absolution from the confession will put you in a state of grace to be able to receive Holy Communion.

.Catholic AnswerOf course not, an Anglican is a protestant, a Catholic Church is Catholic.
