May Greek Orthodox people receive Holy Communion in the Catholic Church?
Yes, they may receive Holy Communion in a Catholic Church. Members of the Orthodox Churches are the only non-Catholics who may do so.Orthodox view:No, the Orthodox Church does not allow its members to receive Holy Communion in any other church. Whilst the Roman Catholics allow the Orthodox to do this, the Orthodox themselves are not allowed to partake, as they are not in communion with the Roman Catholics. Perhaps this situation may change in the future, but for now it is not permitted.
Why does the Catholic church not allow other Christians to partake in communion?
Because one of the reasons for receiving Holy Communion in the Catholic Church is to publicly show your communion with the Catholic Church. Non-Catholics are not in communion with the Catholic Church and therefore cannot receive Holy Communion.
What do the orthodox christians think about divorce?
Eastern Orthodox - allow up to 2 divorces, the 2nd one being only for particular limited circumstances Oriental Orthodox - no divorce except for adultery
Can a catholic receive communion in Greek orthodox church?
No they cannot. The Orthodox Chruch and Catholic Church are not in communion with one another and are not able to receive the Eucharist at other churches legitmately. -UPDATE- In the past few years this practice has been changed. Orthodox believers can now receive communion in a Roman Catholic Church and Roman Catholics can now receive communion in an Orthodox Church, however either should only be done in a time of necessity. Great strides are being made in bringing the two churches back together again as it was in the beginning. Catholics will give communion to an Orthodox but an Orthodox is not supposed to take communion anywhere but in the Orthodox Church. I have yet to see communion given to a Catholic in an Orthodox church. If you are not baptised Orthodox you are not given the Holy Mystery in the Orthodox Church. In my church, the Priest will not give communion to anyone unless they have had confession, and will certainly not give communion to ANYONE, not even a Catholic, if they are not Orthodox. It is not allowed.
Do Orthodox Jews allow cremation?
No.
Does Shabbat allow travel?
Not for Orthodox Jews, but the other branches of Judaism allow it.
Can Anglicans marry in a Greek orthodox church?
Generally this is not allowed, as the Orthodox Church only accepts marriage between Orthodox Christians as the correct way. However, especially in Western countries, some Orthodox Churches will allow a mixed marriage to take place, for example between an Orthodox and a Catholic or Protestant, so long as the couple agree to baptize and raise any children in the Orthodox Faith.
Do Protestants get confirmed and receive Holy Communion.?
All Protestants celebrate the Lord's Supper (receive Holy Communion) although the frequency differs from denomination to denomination and church to church. Many Protestants (but not all) participate in "confirmation classes" and are confirmed, while others attend church membership classes and become just members by a public profession of their faith.
Does Judaism allow women cantors?
Yes, but Orthodox Judaism does not.
Who can receive communion in a protestant church?
To begin with, neither Catholics nor Orthodox may receive communion in a Protestant church. Most Protestant churches allow them to, but the Catholic and Orthodox churches do not allow their respective members to receive in a Protestant church. That said, the short answer is: Protestants may receive communion in a Protestant church. The long answer is: It varies from one Protestant denomination to the next, and sometimes one congregation to the next. The United Methodists, Episcopal Church, and the Evangelical Lutheran Church have open communion, and that pretty much means, if you're a baptized Christian, you may receive. There are others that fit this category. The Lutheran Church Missouri Synod practices closed communion, only those of their own group (and possibly WELS Lutherans but I'm not sure) may receive. Baptists vary. Many have open communion, and some just keep it among Baptists of their own denomination or group. As you can see, it is not an easy question. So my final advice is to call the church office, or ask an usher or the pastor at a convenient time before the service you are attending. That way you'll know what's appropriate for that service.
Why don't women wear the Tefillin?
Orthodox Judaism doesn't allow it.
Can a non-Catholic receive Holy Communion at a Catholic service?
Generally, the answer is no. However, certain circumstances may allow for it. 1) Roman Catholics who do not have access to a Roman Catholic Mass may receive communion from Orthodox churches. However, most Orthodox churches have rules that they can not give Roman Catholics communion. 2) In danger of death, a Roman Catholic can receive communion from another church with valid sacraments, for example, any of the Orthodox churches. 3)Roman Catholics can not receive communion while attending Protestant religious services.generally no, since they have not been baptized in the faith of that particular Christian group.
