It is the opinion of this writer that if the non Catholic read that which was in accordance with Catholic doctrine I would see no reason for them to be refused. If one were to read that which was contrary to the Catholic creed then no. As this writer understands who would be allowed such an honor then it would be someone of some standing in the community.

∙ 12y agoA person who is not Catholic is allowed to attend Mass. They are free to participate in prayer, song, and readings. However, anyone who is not Catholic should not participate in the Eucharist, a sacred Sacrament for baptized Catholics where patrons receive bread and wine as the body and blood of Christ.

What do you need to register to Catholic school?
Catholic schools normally base applications solely on religious grounds; if you are a Catholic, then you are much more likely to get entry. Many have quota for nonCatholic students though, so there is a chance of getting in that way. Otherwise, it is like applying to any school; have good enough grades to be worth accepting.
Does the priest read the Gospel?
During the Catholic Mass, the priest does read the Gospel. He can, however, confer the ability to read the Gospel onto a deacon for that Mass. In common practice, though, only a priest should read the Gospel during the Mass; in private Bible groups or readings, it may be read aloud by anyone.
Is the Catholic Mass based on the Bible?
No. Although the catholic church call themselves a "christian" church, their "Mass" and other religious beliefs are based on their own loose interpretations of the Bible, but are non-scriptural. (Which is why the Pope had forbidden catholics to read the bible themselves in the past) I am a Roman Catholic priest and the answer by the person above is very anti-Catholic and absolutely incorrect. The person is obviously ignorant of the Catholic faith. Nearly every word of the Catholic Mass comes DIRECTLY from the bible. Plus Catholics hear three readings at every Mass and over a 3 year period hear over 50% of the bible proclaimed. Furthermore, no Pope has EVER forbidden Catholic to read the bible.
Should the gospel be read at mass?
Yes, the gospel is an essential part of the Catholic Mass. It is one of the key readings in the Liturgy of the Word and is typically read by a priest or deacon as a proclamation of the teachings of Jesus Christ. The gospel is central to the liturgical celebration of Mass and is meant to be listened to attentively by the congregation.
When is the Epistle in the Roman Catholic Mass?
The Epistle is read between the First Reading and the Gospel.
