NO first communion
« on: July 18, 2026, 02:46:08 AM »
A family member of mine has their first communion at a NO church. I do not plan on going, is it fine to go to the after party for lunch?

Why wouldn’t you go? I understand a traditional Mass would be far preferable but it’s not a Protestant ‘communion’ or non Christian celebration. So it is perfectly permissible to attend. It depends how close you are to the family member though. If not close you might want to give it a miss.

NO mass is an abomination and a sin to attend. The NO priests have no sacramental power.

Fealty to God always overrules human respect. Logically, what's the occasion of the after-party? Would it be happening if not for what happened earlier that day? 

If you'll be part of the farce of a small child being led to believe that Our Lord was fittingly received in an utterly unfitting manner, then your presence condones the preceding sacrilege. This holds whether or not you believe that the Sacrament is validity confected in the NOM. What counts for your question is what THEY (adults included) believe, and thus what you'd be going along with by your physical presence. Is socializing at such a gathering really worth it?
