Catholics are not to receive communion in any non Catholic church as in doing so it expresses a unity of faith that does not exist at this time.
This is a difficult question to dissect. I think what you mean is that a Catholic gets married to a Non-Catholic in a Civil Ceremony and then sometime later wants to receive Communion. Any Catholic can receive Communion and should, as long as they are not aware of any mortal sin. In this situation, Catholics must be married in the Catholic Church or receive a dispensation to be married elsewhere. If this is not done, it is a grave offense (mortal sin) and a confession is required before going to Communion again.
It depends on the church. Some you can; others (like Missouri or Wisconsin Synod), you must be a member.
No, you can still have the Mass if the non-Catholic agrees to your oath of raising children Catholic and all the other requirements of the Carholic marriage. However, the non-Catholic cannot receive Holy Communion.
At a wedding mass at communion, bread and wine
.Catholic AnswerMaybe. You would need to make an appointment with your pastor, sit down, and discuss it, telling him all the circumstances of the wedding, etc. He will tell you what the next step is.
Yes; the non-catholic can be a witness ( best man, etc.) but for a Mass cannot receive communion. The non-Catholic can even be the bride or groom with proper paperwork filled out and certain oaths of the Catholic party witnessed
A Catholic may receive Communion twice in one day or three times under certain conditions: Let's say a person attends a Saturday morning Mass and later in the day attends a wedding. The person can receive communion at both Masses. If the same person then attends the Saturday evening anticipated Mass, he/she is free to receive again as that Mass counts as the Sunday obligation.
Roman Catholic answer:This parable is a wonderful allegory. The part you are asking about, being prepared to receive Holy Communion relates to the second part starting with verse 11 when the King finds a guest without a wedding garment-he should have been dressed for the occasion--in other words, good works must go with faith.
The Catholic Church can and does perform marriages for a Catholic and a non-Catholic (mixed marriages). Generally, Lutheran weddings are left to be performed by Lutheran pastors, though..Catholic AnswerI think what you are asking is can a wedding that took place in a Lutheran Church be blessed by a priest in the Catholic Church. I teach in the RCIA and we have many people coming into the Church whose marriages are in questionable circumstances - as far as the Church is concerned. Marriage is a sacrament, and can only be validly celebrated by two baptized individuals of the opposite sex who are both eligible to marry. A Lutheran wedding between two baptized protestants would be a valid marriage. When someone is converting to the Catholic Church and already married, in whatever circumstances, in most cases, they must be married again before a priest to validly enact the sacrament. Lay folk often refer to this a having the "marriage blessed by a priest" (or the Catholic Church).
Roman Catholic AnswerNot sure what you're asking, if you want to know if you need an annulment from a marriage that was performed in front of a Lutheran minister, then yes, you would need an annulment if you were thinking of marrying again, but otherwise, not. If you are saying that there was a Catholic priest at the wedding with the Lutheran minister, then you are going to have to talk to a priest about this, or call the Chancery.
I don't believe so. My parents had a Catholic wedding, and I was baptized Lutheran. It is also possible to convert or be 'confirmed' later in life.
Yes, the bridal party (groomsmen, bridesmaids) do not have to be Lutheran.Roman Catholic AnswerYou need to speak with your pastor, your priest about this. If either of the people getting married is Catholic then they must get married before a priest. If both of them are protestant, then there is nothing wrong with the wedding, but whether a Catholic may participate in a non-Catholic wedding as an official witness, that you would have to ask your priest.
