Hello,
Do the Episcopalian and Orthodox Churches have the real presence in the Eucharist? I thought this could only be done through Apostolic Succession. Also, can they take communion in the Catholic Church?

Thank you,
Tony
 
The Orthodox Churches have valid Holy Orders while the Episcopal Church does not; therefore, only the former’s Eucharist is valid.

Concerning your second question, non-Catholics are normally not admitted to Communion in the Catholic Church. For details on this see Who Can Receive Communion?
