How would the Catholic Church respond if Jesus who was Jewish wanted communion?

The Catholic Church would not administer Communion to Jesus. This is not due to the fact that he was "Jewish" (all Christians for the first two centuries after Jesus's death were considered Jewish), but because Jesus is the Bread of Life. The Host contains His Spirit. The purpose of Communion is also to administer God's grace. Jesus Christ, being one person in the Triune God, would not need to receive His own graces.

But it is also a person and public "communion" between ourselves and Christ, and between us and other believers. So a person who takes Communion in the privacy of their home risks removing the sacredness of the Sacrament, and losing out on the reverent but celebration of 'communion'.
