The purpose of the Eucharist in mass is for everyone to take in Jesus.

Can you take bread and wine at mass if you have not made your First Holy Communion?

.Catholic AnswerAfter the consecration (the prayer the priest says at the altar) there is no more bread and wine. All of it is entirely changed (a process known as transubstantiation) into the Body and Blood of Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ. You may only receive Our Blessed Lord in Holy Communion after you are old enough to recognize the difference between bread and wine and Our Blessed Lord's Body and Blood. When you are old enough to know the difference, then you must make your first Confession, and first Holy Communion. And then you receive it, you never take it. Only protestants "take" Communion. Catholics "receive" Holy Communion - there is a HUGE difference.


What do you have to do to get wine and bread in the Catholic Church?

First off, it is not wine and bread. It has been changed and is the body of Christ. That is probably what is restricting you from receiving communion. The Catholic and Orthodox believe that it had been transfigured, even though it doesn't change form, the bread and wine change in essence. To receive the Eucharist at a Catholic Church, you yourself need to become Catholic and believe in the Transfiguration


What the first communicants renew before they receive the holy bread?

The only "holy bread" that I know about in the Catholic Church is the bread that is blessed at Easter unless you are referring to the most Holy Eucharist which is NOT bread, it just appears that way, it is the actual Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ. First communicants must first be baptized and then before they receive their first Holy Communion, they must receive Reconciliation.
