1. An experienced Catholic knows communion is at the end of Mass and a time of reverence. Her mom won’t say anything to her until after Mass.  But OP is talking like she wants to take a preventive talk/excuse to her family?

2.  I don’t know any even nominal, C&E Catholic who does not know about the arm crossed blessing.  Practically every pastor emphasizes it especially at C&E services.

3.  Someone who has been raised in the Catholic Church knows exactly what the meaning of communion is. So unless OP is keeping her apostasy a secret, the easiest built in excuse and technically honest explanation is that she is not in a spiritual state to receive communion. [/quote]

I was probably 20 before I knew about it. I didn't see anyone do it growing up.[/quote]

It’s what the kids old enough to walk in the Communion line (as opposed to being carried by a parent) who haven’t received first communion do.  How did you not see that? Was there a different norm in your parish?[/quote]

We sat in the pew. [/quote]
