When an Aunt died many year later the anglican priest invited us all to go to communion I went as this was the last thing I could do to show my Aunt I loved her.

Thank you for saying this because as a Catholic I occasionally go to my daughter church and receive their communion. It’s a non-denominational church.

My nonCatholic won’t go to Mass with me because he can’t take communion. I know the Church’s rules, but wouldn’t Jesus allow him to do so?

Well said
Diane, receiving Communion outside Catholic Church is wrong. This has nothing to do with keeping rules. Catholic communion is different from others.
