The Bible says that communion is for believers ( usually believers are baptised)
Act 20:7 Now on the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul, ready to depart the next day, spoke to them and continued his message until midnight.
In the above verse believers are meeting together and it is the same in other places in the Bible where breaking of bread/communion is mentioned eg 1Corinthians 11

Can I receive Communion at my Nana's funeral mass if I am a baptized but not confirmed Catholic and also an ardent Christian?
Roman Catholic AnswerFirst, let me extend my condolences on the death of your Nana, I am so sorry. If you are a baptised Catholic, who has made his first Holy Communion, and have gone to confession, then, of course, you may receive Holy Communion. If you are not a baptised Catholic or have not made your first Holy Communion, then you make what we call a "spiritual Communion" which is what a Catholic would do if they have not been to Confession, asking Jesus to come into your heart.

Is taking Holy Communion in a Church better than doing it at home?
Catholic AnswerCatholics do not "take" Holy Communion, they "receive" it. And Church, usually at Mass, is the place and time to receive Our Blessed Lord in the Holy Eucharist. The only time to receive Holy Communion at home is if you are sick, and a priest, deacon, or duly appointed Extraordinary Minister of the Eucharist brings Him to you. Any other way or receiving Our Lord, unless specifically approved by your Bishop is not permitted by the Church. Finally, although it is still Holy Communion, it is infinitely better to receive Holy Communion during Mass both because a) just attending Mass, even without Holy Communion, is a great source of grace, b) and, believe it or not, being a Christian means being part of the Body of Christ. Being Christian is a corporate thing, you need to be worshipping with your fellow Christians, and receiving Holy Communion with them. So you are mistaken, it is not better to receive Holy Communion at home, and it is NEVER better to TAKE Holy Communion.

You are a catholic you have been baptised you did not take first holy communion can you take holy communion now?
Christ came to take away your sins and he sent his son to die on the cross to take away your sins. As long as you have asked Jesus into your heart and believe in him with your full heart it, and believes that he lives in your heart than you have been saved. So itdoesn't matter when or how you take the Holy Communion. Don't be distracted by the little things.
