A Christian may never "take" Holy Communion, he may only receive Holy Communion. You should only receive Holy Communion when you are in a worthy state to do so; in other words, you must be in a state of grace (have been to confession recently) and made a proper preparation. If you do all of that, the ideal would be to receive Holy Communion every day, but to receive it in a state of sin, or without proper preparation is extremely dangerous as St. Paul warns us. If in doubt, consult your regular confessor, and do NOT receive Holy Communion until he has given you his okay.

Can a Catholic receive Holy Communion when he arrives a little time before Holy Communion is distributed?
A priest from our parish said that one must be there at least in time for the Our Father to receive Holy Communion, but, in reality, you probably won't be denied Holy Communion if you arrived after the Our Father. Although you should not really even approach to receive if you are that late. If you have arrived that late, and it is a Sunday, you must either attend another Mass to fulfill your obligation or confess before receiving Holy Communion, as it is a mortal sin to miss a Sunday or Holy Day of Obligation Mass.
Do you have to be baptized to take communion?

Going Catholic how do you do it?
Go to your local church, ask if there are any baptismal ceremonies coming up, get baptized. Then after that, if you are over the age of 18, you must have your First Holy Communion and your Confirmation. You are usually baptized when you are a baby if your family is too and wants you to be Catholic. Then you have your First Holy Communion when you are in second grade, then, when you are 17 or 18, you have you Confirmation. It may take a lot of Religion classes for you to be able to receive First Holy Communion and Confirmation, but if you wish to be Catholic you must go through with it. Then after all of that you must go to mass every Sunday and Holy Days to receive Holy Communion (the Eucharist). Trust me, I'm a Catholic, I know what I'm doing!ANSWER:Cute. :-)1. Visit a Catholic Church in your neighborhood.2. Tell the priest you'd like to consider becoming a Catholic.3. Ask about their RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation) program.4. If you were baptized in a non-Catholic Christian denomination, you will not be re-baptized. You'll just need to receive the other Sacraments of Christian initiation: Confession/Reconciliatiion, Holy Communion/Eucharist and ConFIRMation.5. Process takes approximately 4 to 5 months; faster if necessary for some legitimate reason.
Is it true that if you miss one day of Church in Catholic that you can not come back to Church all year?
If you miss Mass on Sunday through no fault of your own it is OK. If you deliberately miss Mass it should be confessed to priest, but you can go to church anytime and not have to wait at all.Catholic AnswerPlease note that you are required by Church Law and by your baptism to attend Mass every Sunday and Holy Day of Obligation during the year. If you deliberately miss Mass on a Sunday or Holy Day of Obligation, then you have committed a mortal sin and must go to confession before receiving Holy Communion. However, even if you do not make it to confession, you still must attend Mass, you just may not receive Holy Communion.
