Much has been written about the exclusion of divorced and remarried Catholics from receiving Communion. I would add that rejection and pain is also experienced in interchurch marriages by families who feel the need to receive Communion together as an expression of their unity and vocation. They, too, are denied an invitation to share in the body of the one Lord who is the essence of their sacramental union. My husband, who is Anglican, and myself have found that during 30 years of marriage any welcome to share Communion in the Catholic Church has become more infrequent, more fraught and more grudging. However, interchurch families remain beacons of hope, where the daily reality of unity is lived in the domestic church, where diversity is celebrated and allowed to enrich our relationships
