Do you mean a roommate scenario where there is a man and a woman? Are you wondering if this causes scandal or is not supported due to the near occasion of sin? Or are you referring to a couple in a romantic relationship?

You go to pray: to become a bonfire, a living flame, giving heat and light.
-St. Jose Escriva De Belaguer
... you should know that there is present with you the angel whom God has appointed for each man… This angel, who is sleepless and cannot be deceived, is always present with you; he sees all things and is not hindered by darkness. You should know, too, that with him is God.
-St. Anthony the Great
When you told me God was inside me, I thought of a pebble in a glass. When you told me it is more like the ocean is in a wave, I wept...

In my experience they would treat it as sinful at least with respect to scandal and they would preach against such a situation.

Cohabitation is for hippies. WWJD?  “Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.” |

Sometimes I think we need a forum called "Questions that Should Really Be Directed to a Priest"  http://www.sspx.org/Catholic_FAQs/catholic_faqs__sacramental.htm#refuse_communionMust a priest follow certain criteria if he is to refuse Holy Communion to the faithful?
A priest does not have the right to refuse Holy Communion arbitrarily. He must follow the requirements of Canon Law, which prescribes to whom he must refuse Holy Communion, and to whom he must administer it. This law is to be found in Canon 855, §1:
Catholics who are publicly known to be unworthy (for example, those who have been excommunicated or interdicted or who are manifestly of ill repute) must be refused Holy Communion until their repentance and amendment have been established, and satisfaction has been made for the public scandal which they have given.
The essential part of this law is that a Catholic must be a public sinner, or publicly unworthy, to be refused the sacrament of Holy Communion. This is the case, for example, of a person who has publicly performed abortions, or voted for legislation in favor of abortion; or of a father who would have had his children baptized and raised in an heretical sect; or giving membership to the Communist party, or public concubinage; or of persons divorced and remarried outside the Church or convicted of civil crimes such as pedophilia. |

What about taking communion? If it were public knowledge, especially at the chapel, my guess is they would be refused Communion, but that is up to the individual priest. If you're talking about what the person should do, they should confer with a priest before going to Communion to get pastoral advice. When in doubt, ask your priest before acting. |

Do you think they would eventually be asked to not attend? |
