No. Roman Catholics are only in "communion" with other Roman Catholics and with Christ, the head of the Church. Roman Catholics form a single body of Christ by receiving Holy Communion under one Holy Spirit. God bless.
"The Anglican Communion hold that Apostolic Succession is a core element of the validity of clerical ordinations. The Roman Catholic Church does not recognize Anglican orders (see Apostolicae Curae). The Eastern Orthodox Churches and Oriental Orthodox churches have traditionally accepted the validity of Anglican orders.[6]"
It is said they "Roman Catholics" are not suppose to.. yet is man to judge man?
Can there ordained priests make salvation for you.. The Monks say... "no they cannot, only your deed are written in your Book of life"
In Christ Order, witness of sin is found within. If you do not feel guilty for wrongs you do on this Earth and it doesn't go against what you believe or the man made religion places where you worship, then chances are you will not have to spend a small eternity in judgment.
The answer is no. Although I love my Anglican brethren, the sacrament of Communion is only valid at the Catholic Church. They won't agree with me and I dearly do not wish for this to separate us, but the truth is the truth.
The Catholic Church does not recognize the sacraments of the Anglican Church as being true sacraments. The Anglican Church does not believe in transubstantiation (the belief that the bread and wine become the body of Christ), unlike the Catholic Church. In the Anglican Church, it is a symbolic act. However, for Catholics, "The Code of Canon Law says, "Can. 844 ?1 Catholic ministers may lawfully administer the sacraments only to catholic members of Christ's faithful, who equally may lawfully receive them only from catholic ministers, except as provided in ??2, 3 and 4 of this canon and in can. 861 ?2." The Catholic Church does not recognize a Eucharist unless it is performed by a priest ordained in the Catholic Church. Of course, in an emergency (such as imminent death, etc.), you take what you can get, with the blessing of the Church.
Now, that doesn't mean that the Anglican Church doesn't welcome Catholics to Eucharist. The Anglican Church does not have closed communion -- i.e., you don't have to be Anglican to partake of communion, you only have to be baptized (and they aren't that strict about that, either, really, they don't ask for a baptismal certificate on the way up to the altar!) A few other churches do have closed communion -- in certain Baptist churches, you have to be a member of that congregation in order to take communion. The Lutheran Church (Missouri Synod) is also a closed communion church, as well as the Eastern Orthodox church.
At the Last Supper, Jesus said, ?Take this bread. It is my body.? The he said, ?Take this and drink. This is my blood. Do this in memory of me.?
Catholics believe this was the First Eucharist, that through some miracle the bread and wine actually became the body and blood of Jesus Christ.
Catholics reenact the Last Supper during every Mass, where the priest, acting in place of Christ, changes the bread and wine into the body and blood of Jesus Christ.
This is a great sacrament of thanksgiving and unity of Catholics.
Anyone who does not believe in the actual presence of Christ and is not united with the Catholic faith is asked, out of respect, not to receive the Eucharist.
Catholics, out of respect for other Christian faiths, do not receive Communion in non-Catholic churches.
We pray that one day Christian unity will succeed and we will all be called to the same table.
