Hello y'll, I am a Catholic by religion and I met a lovely girl who is a protestant and fallen in love. We are planning to get married this year on December but an issue is coming on who to officiate our wedding. She want us to wed outdoor in a garden but the catholic church has ruled that out recently in a statement issued by the Cardinal. She want us to move in the Catholic church after marriage and i don't know how this will happen. Please help me out.

+ Mixed Faith Marriage +

The Catholic Church allows marriage between Catholics and non-Catholics.

The interfaith couple will have to get permission from the bishop

Anyone married in the Catholic Church has to:
+ Take a pre-marriage course
+ Promise to baptize and educate their children in the Catholic Church.

Here is a good article with suggestions on how to help an inter-church marriage succeed: http://www.americancatholic.org/Newslett ers/CU/ac0690.asp

For more information, see the Catechism of the Catholic Church, sections 1633-1637: http://www.usccb.org/catechism/text/pt2s ect2chpt3art7.shtml#1633

+ Place +

All Catholic sacraments are public, not private, events. Even weddings.

These are occasions for the entire church community to come together and celebrate the union of a man and a woman . Although everyone is not necessarily invited to the reception, no one is turned away from the actual wedding ceremony.

Because of this communal quality of the Sacrament of Marriage, the Code of Canon Law says a marriage is ideally to be celebrated in the parish church.

However a marriage can be celebrated:
• In another church with permission of the bishop or pastor
• In any other suitable place with permission of the bishop

For more information, see the Code of Canon Law, section 1118: http://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG1104/__ P40.HTM

With love in Christ.

i know that a divorced us citizen can marry a filipina citizen, But is it allowed in the catholic church? As me and my fiance are planning a church marriage. I know that catholic church rules in the philippines are very strict regarding divoce. anyone know? if possible?

Absolutely not, the Catholic Church does not recognise divorce. My friend had been married before and therefore could not marry his philipino fiancee in church in the philipinnes. He had to get married at a Golf Club out there.
He had a blessing in the Church of England church when he returned to the UK but cant do a blessing in her catholic faith unless his first wife dies. In the eyes of the Catholic faith she is not married to all intents and purposes.

A friend asked me to ask this question. If a husband is unfaithful to his wife, let's say he even got another woman pregnant, and she would like to start another relationship, would she be free (according to the church) to divorce him and move on?

Could her second marriage be in the church or would she have to get an annulment?

also: Would she be able to take communion as a divorced woman?

In reverse order:

Yes, divorced people can receive Communion as long they have not remarried without an annulment and as long as they are not in a state of mortal sin.

Yes, her second marriage could be in the Church but ONLY if her first marriage is declared null.

No, the fact that her husband is having an affair and fathering children with other women does NOT necessarily mean that she is "free" to divorce him and move on. She might be, but she might not be.

Let me explain. When you get married, you take sacred vows, "for better, for worse" and if you mean those vows then you are obligated to uphold them even through the "worse" parts. Both of the couple are obligated, of course, which mean Mr. Doofus was the first to jack this situation. He has sinned against his vows, against God, against his wife, against his lover, against his kids and against himself.

But the fact that he is a sinner doesn't mean that the vows are over and done with. Those vows are sacred and permanent, and if the couple truly understood them and meant them, they are unbreakable.

However, there is a chance that the marriage is invalid if the vows were NOT taken in an authentic way. Say he's always cheated on her and has never intended to be faithful. That would invalidate the vows. Say they rushed into marriage because she was pregnant. That could do it. There are a whole bunch of possible reasons that this marriage could be invalid, but him sinning isn't it. We all sin. We all sin against our spouses from time to time, but we vow to stick with it "for better, for worse."

Basically I was married in 1996 to a non catholic in a catholic church. The priest explained to me he would perform the ceremony of marriage but not the mass. We were divorced later, now what I would really like to know is, can I Re marry in the church, with an actual catholic mass? My husband who I am married to thru law, and I are both catholic and would like a church ceremony. Do I still have to go thru the process of annulment even tho, it was not an actual wedding and mass ceremony?

Yes.

All previous marriages, civil or religious, have to be dealt with before someone can be married in the Catholic Church.

The Catholic Church believes that God does not recognize civil divorces.

Jesus said, "Therefore what God has joined together, no human being must separate." (Mark 10:9)

However there may be hope of a declaration of nullity.

The term "annulment" is a misnomer because the Church does not undo or erase a marriage bond.

Rather the Church issues a declaration of nullity when it discovers that the parties were not truly joined by God and hence a full spiritual sacramental marriage as understood by the Church was not present.

Then the parties are free to marry for the first time.

Approach the appropriate person your in your parish who has been trained in the process. If you encounter difficulties, you may go directly to the diocese.

Be prayerful, honest and patient. It takes a while.

With love in Christ.
