Receiving Communion At A Protestant Church

Recommended Posts

Canon. 861, §2. Whenever necessity requires it or true spiritual advantage suggests it, and provided that danger of error or of indifferentism is avoided, the Christian faithful for whom it is physically or morally impossible to approach a Catholic minister are permitted to receive the sacraments of penance, Eucharist, and anointing of the sick from non-Catholic ministers in whose Churches these sacraments are valid."

 


This clearly states the exception to receive communion is only valid in churches where the Sacraments are valid. As far as I know that would be the Eastern Orthodox churches but not the Protestant churches.

 

The act of Holy Communion is also an outward expression of a Communion. Sadly this does not exist with Protestant Churches in the way it exists albeit in an impaired way with the Orthodox
