What is the right thing to do when a priest, because of a large number of people, does not confess everyone, but all together and so every Liturgy – is Communion worthy?

Communion after general confession can be received by those who do not have mortal sins, i.e. the sins of abortion, adultery, fornication, theft, drunkenness, sorcery (including spiritualism, extrasensory perception, astrology, yoga, and occultism in general). For people who have mortal sins, private confession is necessary. After the service, you need to contact the priest and tell him that you need a private confession, as you have problems. If the priest refuses, this sin will be on his conscience. And you should still go to the nearest monastery, where the priest always has more time to listen to you.

But even if there are no mortal sins, at least once a year try to find an opportunity to confess individually.

Is it a sin to say "worship...", "swear..."?

Of course, it is sinful, it is an even greater sin than to swear and swear to yourself.

I, being a non-believer, named my son Stanislav at the request of my wife, and the priest baptized him with this name without attention. With what name should a baby approach the Holy Chalice? What should I do?

To do this, you need to approach the priest, tell about your problem at confession, and the priest must read a prayer for naming in honor of the saint you choose. Give communion to an infant with a new name, and it will become his rightful name.

I have an icon of the Mother of God right on the bedside table. Is this acceptable? In modern apartments, there is a problem of the arrangement of images. Usually, icons were placed in the red corner facing east. It is desirable to arrange the icons in the following way:

1) that they should not be near the TV;

2) there were no secular paintings or sculptures, or photographs of relatives near them;
