Can Someone Be Denied Holy Communion?

Sometimes we can be tricked into thinking that the Holy Communion
we receive at Mass every Sunday is somehow owed to us; that we have
a right to receive it. However, the Eucharist, which is Jesus
Christ’s own body and blood, is a divine gift bestowed upon us by
our Heavenly Father. And because it’s a gift, the way we receive it
and the state of our souls matter greatly to our relationship with
God. Which begs the question: can someone be denied Holy Communion?
Today, Fr. Mike explains whether communion is a gift that can be
taken away, and what that means for public figures who openly
support practices against the Church, like abortion. If you or
someone you know has had an abortion and is seeking help and
