If the communion of saints is praying to those who have passed on then yes, it is necromancy and a sin. According to scripture a saint is anyone who is saved, and communion is the breaking of bread in memory of Christ as he told us to do.

"The communion of saints" is a catholic term based on catholic definitions. The working catholic definition of "saint" is those venerated by the church. That is not the working definition of the bible.
