Hi, guys —

I am a Catholic who got married at the age of 19 to a non-Denominational Christian at her Christian church; we got divorced a couple of years later.

Now I have a new female partner. We are both Catholic and she wants to get married in the Catholic Church and, seeing I was initially married in a Non-denominational Christian church, I don't know if I can.

  • Can we get married in the Catholic Church?

Thanks and God bless you.

Daniel

  { Since I married in a Non-denominational Christian church, can we marry in the Catholic Church? }

Mary Ann replied:

Daniel —

Go talk to your local Catholic pastor, and he will show you how to proceed.

There are many possible reasons why your previous union may be declared invalid.

That would have to happen before you can marry your present girl friend.

Meanwhile, pray and ask God's blessings, graces, and guidance.

Mary Ann
