Hi, guys —
I was baptized as an infant at a Catholic
parish. Several months later, my birth mother
gave me to another woman. She sent me to a
Protestant church. They baptized me, unaware
of the original Baptism.
In my late teens, I married my girlfriend,
also a Protestant, in a Protestant marriage
service.
We separated and were divorced.
After some years, I married a Protestant via
a Justice of the Peace. We eventually divorced.
A couple of years ago, I completed RCIA, was
confirmed, and received my First Holy Communion.
I am now wondering about my two previous marriages
and whether they would be considered valid
by the Church.
Any references that you could provide with
your reply would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Al
