Could any denomination of Christian receive Holy Communion in the Catholic Church?

Catholicism is classified as a form of Christianity. Catholics are Christians. So yes, a Christian can have communion in a Catholic church.Actually, only Catholic Christians are able to receive the Eucharist (communion) in the Catholic Church. Any Christian may come up for a blessing from the priest however since Catholics believe that when they receive communion they are receiving the true Body and Blood of Christ they also believe that you can't receive unless you are in a state of grace. The only way to be in a state of grace is having been to confession/reconciliation a sacrament of the Catholic Church that is not practiced in any other Christian based Religion..Catholic AnswerOf course any Christian who is a member of the Church, has received their first Holy Communion, and is in a state of grace (has been to Confession recently) may receive Holy Communion in the Church. IF you are using the word "Christian" to refer to separated brethren (protestants), then, no.

What are the requirements of the Sacrament of Confirmation?

Roman Catholic AnswerYou must be a baptized Catholic. You should have made your First Holy Communion. There are some eastern Rites that Baptize and Confirm infants at the same time and immediately give them Holy Communion, I'm discussing Latin Rite Catholics here. Finally, you should be of an age where you choose to be confirmed, have been instructed sufficiently in the faith, and have recently made a good confession. If you receive the sacrament when you are in a state of mortal sin, you do not receive the grace of the sacrament. It is still given, but the grace will not be there while you are in a state of sin.


What is the next sacrament after the holy communion?

In the Catholic Church, the next is traditionally Confirmation.


Can Christians who are not Confirmed receive Communion?

Strictly, no, I'm afraid. Officially you're not allowed, but it may vary from church to church - why don't you ask your local priest/vicar. They may be prepared to make an allowance. If it's a long term bond with Christianity you're after, then why don't you ask for a baptisment? Of course, you have to be fully comitted for that.
