communion takers Explanation: I agree with Phil. The second part of the list appears to refer to events like marriages and baptisms and the first part to types of people or other nouns like schools. So I would agree that kommunizierende may mean people who actually took communion or who are eligible to partake of it. Kommunikanten will then be the number of times that communion was administered. The question may come up, more than once per day? No, the number of times that communion was administered to someone. So 500 times, someone took communion. It may even be that it was rounded off because they don't have a precise record of who took it more than once. Also maybe there were some people from out of town who were just there when it was served. Reference: http://www.pcf.va/roman_curia/congregations/ccdds/documents/...
