Hi, my second post.
Is it ok to take the Eucharist twice in a day? Two scenarios. I volunteer at a residential facility and attend a weekday mass and rosary with the residents. My concentration is more on helping the residents. Later that day i go to mass and exposition.

I go to the rural church mass once a fortnight when it is on for saturday vigil, and might go to the reconcilliation/rosary/mass earlier that day in the regional town cathedral. , and then go to sunday mass in the regional town cathedral ( they have a great old organ and hymns).

I am in australia, live rurally. I like to go to
our rural church mass ( same parish) once a fortnight when it is offered. (Support your local church so it wont close). For christmas starting saturday night, our 4 priests will do about 10 masses and travel lots of km to say mass at every rural church . God bless them.
 
Yes, you can receive communion twice in a day as long as the second time is at Mass.
Can. 917 A person who has already received the Most Holy Eucharist can receive it a second time on the same day only within the eucharistic celebration in which the person participates, without prejudice to the prescript of ⇒ can. 921, §2.

You can receive a third time if you are in danger of death.

Can. 921 §1. The Christian faithful who are in danger of death from any cause are to be nourished by holy communion in the form of Viaticum.

§2. Even if they have been nourished by holy communion on the same day, however, those in danger of death are strongly urged to receive communion again.

What you are doing is just fine.

No problem at all.
 
Twice a day is the max I believe. In one of his talks, Servant of God, Fr.Hardon SJ recommended we go twice a day for a greater increase in Gods grace
