that's the thing... He can take the sacrament. He is a home teacher. He just can't go to the temple. My bishop agrees that he should be reinstated and so does the stake president. Salt Lake is the only one holding up the process and they by nature of being 2000 miles away can't possibly know the full situation.

are non-members prohibited from partaking? I'm sure there is something written that the sacrament is supposed to be for members only. The truth is that the sacrament is only for those who have been baptized, you would think.
You can't renew covenants you haven't made. But we don't really take this seriously, in the sense that we must consider it more of a general rite of belief. I wonder if the sacrament would mean more to kids if their parents didn't let them take it until they were baptized. My point is that it's not like the deacons are going to specifically avoid passing the sacrament to the person who is excommunicated. |

What would it take, for the person who quietly attends, to be forced to leave the grounds? |
