Holy Communion Twice in One Day?

Question:

Communion twice in one day? First at Mass, then Nursing Home Rosary Service

Answer:

Yes, you may receive twice in one day, although the Church provides guidelines that need to be followed. The Code of Canon Law provides that a person may receive Holy Communion a second time, provided he does so during a celebration of the Eucharist in which he participates (canon 917). The stipulation that one receive the second Communion at a Mass “in which he participates” doesn’t apply in the case of those in danger of death (canon 921).
