No. I hope you are not Catholic. Hopefully you wouldn't be this ignorant of your own practice.

That is an article explaining that while there may be a service where communion is available, it uses pre-sanctified hosts that were consecrated on Holy Thursday, because Mass (the service at which the bread and wine are consecrated) does not happen on Friday.  [/quote]
I think that the PP is being a little overly technical and hung up on terminology. But the bottom line is that Catholics do participate in “services” on Good Friday (and they take Communion), so there is no reason why they shouldn’t have been invited to participate in the services at the Pentagon.
