What is difference between catholic and Episcopal communion?
The difference in communion between Roman Catholic [R.C.] and Episcopal Church [E.C.] comes from the understanding of what happens at the consecration of the bread and wine. The R.C. church believes that the bread and wine physically change into the Body and Blood of Christ. However, the E.C. believes that the change is solely spiritual. Episcopalians still have bread and wine, but the Body and Blood of Christ is present spiritually, metaphorically.
Can episcopal take commumion in the catholic church?
In a Catholic church, the priest can not actually stop a person from taking communion during the mass, so really any one can go up and take communion. Now people in the Episcopal church and Catholic church both believe in Transubstantiation. This is the idea that the bread and wine are turned into the body and blood of Christ by God when the priest prays to God to do so. That is the main reason why the Catholic church does not want other Christians to receive communion if they are attending a Catholic church because most Protestant sects only see the bread and wine as symbols, and do not believe in Transubstantiation. But since Episcopals believe in it, they should be able to take communion in a Catholic church without that problem.
Can Catholics receiving communion at an Episcopal become transubstantiated?
The bread and wine consecrated by a Catholic priest is transubstantiated to the body and blood of Christ. Although the catholic church respects the EPISCOPAL church which is very close in its teachings, there are subtle differences in the meaning of Eucharist and therefore transubstantiation is a prime doctrine of the Catholic church ( and some orthodox churches) only.
In the Episcopal Church can you add more wine to what was consecrated if you are running low?
Yes, in the Episcopal Church can you add more wine to what was consecrated if you are running low. Typically, the priest will consecrate more wine than he anticipates he will need, or he may have some consecrated wine left over from a prior service that can be used.

Is the Episcopal priest able to perform transsubstantiation with the same authority as a Catholic priest?
The Episcopal priest is able to perform all the Sacraments of the Episcopal Church with the same authority as a Catholic priest for THEIR own sacraments. But the Episcopal Church does not believe in transsubstantiation. Transsubstantiation is strictly a Catholic doctrine that states Christ is truly present, Body, Soul, Blood, and Divinity, within the Bread and Wine AS the "Body of Christ". The Episcopal Church believes that after the Words of Institution that Jesus Christ is truly present--really present--in the Bread and Wine. In the Catholic Church the bread and wine is no longer bread and wine. Look up Platonic Philosophy.
What is the proper way to serve communion in a baptist church?
We do not receive communion. Sometimes on special occasions, like Easter, they give the adults wine, but I do not know if that is for every church. I do not think this is the same for every church. Most churches do receive communion on a weekly or monthly basis.

Will you get in trouble with the police if you are 16 and drink wine at church and drive home?
If the wine is only the sip you get for communion, I highly doubt that would be a measurable amount, so in that case no. Surprisingly, in many states, it is illegal for anyone under the age of 21 to consume communion wine.
