What else can I help you with?
Is Saint Aiden's Church a Catholic Church?
Aidan of Lindisfarne is honored in the Catholic Church, and also in the Anglican Communion, the Episcopal Church, the Eastern Orthodox Church and the Lutheran Church, so it is possible that a church named after him could be Catholic or of another denomination.
Can a baptist take communion in a Lutheran church?
No. The Lutheran church believes that Holy Communion is Christ's body and blood by Real Presence. RP is usually described as "in, with, and under". To overly simplify it: we're not sure how it works, but we're taking it on faith. Roman Catholics believe that the wafer/ unleavened bread miraculously becomes- physically and figuratively- the body and blood of Christ. This is a fundamental difference of philosophy, so they would probably not let you. Of course, this depends on the church itself. They would probably quote 2 Timothy (I think) and the curse that befalls anyone who takes Communion/ Eucharist in an unholy fashion. hope i helped. REVISED**The verse is 1 Corinthians 11:27 that states that communion should not be done in an unholy fashion
You are non Catholic and you want to be baptised non Catholic Is it possible and where you live in ChicagoIll?
Go to any church that offers baptism
Why are nonmembers not allowed to take communion in a Lutheran church?
Excluding nonmembers from communion is not a policy of the Lutheran church as a whole. Rather, it may be the policy of a specific church or of a particular denomination. Unlike Catholicism, the Lutheran church does not have one central body. Instead, it is composed of a number of different divisions. In the US, there are three primary groups: the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America (ELCA) Lutheran Church-- Missouri Synod (LCMS or just Missouri Synod), and Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS or Wisconsin Synod). Each group has its own policy on communion. Missouri and Wisconsin Synods both practice closed communion; only members can take communion. The ELCA, however, practices open communion, where anyone can. Of course, individual churches may choose to follow a different procedure from that of the denomination to which they belong, so it is possible for an ELCA church to have closed communion.
Holy communion What if a person is non Catholic hands?
I would assume that anyone who finds out that their hands are not Catholic should have them convert as soon as possible.
If a divorced non Catholic marries a Catholic but not in the Catholic church is an annulment required for the Catholic to receive communion in a Catholic church?
For a Catholic to be in good standing, and to be able to receive Holy Communion, then they must not be in an irregular situation such as you describe, an objective state of sin. For the Catholic to be in a state of grace, and thus to be able to receive Holy Communion, he or she would have to fix the irregularity in his life either by obtaining an annulment and validly married the individual or by separating from them. It might be possible to receive Holy Communion and get back in a state of grace by just practicing continence, until such time as they could be validly married, but this would be an individual decision of the person's confessor. For a more thorough answer for a similar scenario, read this, written by Father Shane Johnson, a New York priest: (see link below)
Does baby need godparents to be baptized in catholic church?
No........but the baby should have a sponsor IF POSSIBLE. The Sponsor is appointed by the Parents (or Parent), or whoever stands in their place, or failing that, by the Parish Priest or Minister of Baptism. The Sponsor must be at least 16 years of age and a baptised catholic, but in an emergency situation, the age rule can be adjusted but that person must be a baptised catholic. A person of another faith can be a sponsor only if there is a catholic sponsor present as well and only as a witness. There is no mention of god parents grandparents in the Code of Church law relating to baptism.
Does what denomination a wedding is performed under effect what denomination a baby can be baptized in?
I don't believe so. My parents had a Catholic wedding, and I was baptized Lutheran. It is also possible to convert or be 'confirmed' later in life.
Who did Jesus baptised?
the Bible has no record of Jesus baptising anyone, but it is possible that He did.
Can a Greek Orthodox Catholic get confession and communion from a Roman Catholic priest?
If the penitent (the one confessing) is Greek Orthodox, not in full communion with Rome, he is welcome to confess to a Catholic priest, either a Roman/Latin one or a "Greek" or "Byzantine" Catholic. He is also permitted by the Catholic Church to receive any of the other Sacraments/Mysteries in our churches, without this indicating in any way a wish to become Catholic. However, his own jurisdiction may not permit this (it can even be excommunicable depending on jurisdictions), so he should check with his own parish priest, spiritual Father or bishop. Usually the Orthodox bishops only permit it in cases where there is no Orthodox parish or mission accessible to the Christian in question.If by 'Greek Orthodox Catholic' we mean someone who is a Byzantine-rite Catholic following Greek traditions but already in full communion with Rome, then he can also receive any of the Sacraments in any Catholic Church. It's not an issue..Catholic AnswerAs noted in the answer above, your question is a little confused as there are Greek Orthodox Christians and there are Greek Catholic Christians, they both follow an identical Rite, while the first in not in communion with the Pope, and the second is. If by "Greek Orthodox Catholic" you are referring to an Greek Orthodox Christian, then, WITH THE LOCAL BISHOP'S PERMISSION, the Greek Orthodox may receive confession and Holy Communion if he is in immediate danger of death and is unable to get to a priest of his own communion. Under any other circumstances, he would be required to convert first. A Greek Catholic Christian is already Catholic and is required to receive Holy Communion and confession regularly from a Catholic priest. Please note that there is no such thing as a "Roman Catholic priest" unless you are speaking of a Catholic priest in the diocese of Rome: It's just Catholic, not Roman Catholic. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the official Catholic Church.
Can a Extraordinary Minister refuse communion to an individual?
No, a Eucharistic Minister may not refuse communion to anyone with the possible exception of very young children who have obviously not made their First Communion.
Can a catholic receive communion in Greek orthodox church?
Oh, dude, technically speaking, it's a bit of a gray area. Like, in general, the Greek Orthodox Church has guidelines about who can receive communion, and typically, they prefer you to be a member of their church. So, like, if you're a Catholic popping in for a visit, they might not be too keen on you joining in on the communion party. But hey, if you're really craving that Eucharist, maybe give them a heads up and see what they say.
