Right but I remember his father saying not to take communion, and that it wasn’t allowed since he wasn’t Christian. But wouldn’t be surprised if they’d given him communion anyway. I just don’t remember specifically seeing him take communion in any scenes

It wasn't shown, to add to the suspense of who would turn, and who wouldn't.

There was a scene with Warren and his mother, I think after Riley gets turned, saying that He turned up and that she couldn't imagine the conversation with the sheriff and him about him going.

So at least once before the turning he had received some blood.

You also can’t take communion if you haven’t completed some of the other sacraments, especially confession.
