Yes they can get married, but most will have to take some classes first.
Usually the non-Catholic person would be required to convert to Catholicism first.
Wrong, The Church only recommends, but will never require anyone to covert to Catholicism first.
THE Answer:The couple must take Pre-Cana Classes . Most importantly , the non-Catholic must promise to baptize and raise the children Catholic and to never impede the Catholic spouse from practicing their faith or teaching the children. That's it for any baptized Christian . For non-Christians , there must be a special dispensation.
Yes, of course!
The priest may require various assurances about the religious faith of the newlyweds and potential children. The priest may also require classes to educate the betrothed in the practices of the church. Practices vary but acceptance of marriage between Protestant and Catholic has improved greatly over the years.
Yes, but the Catholic must receive a dispensation from the local bishop first. The couple must meet with a priest or deacon and fulfill all the same pre-cana preparations as all practicing catholics must do. The catholic priest or deacon must fill out the necessary forms. If this procedure is not followed, the church considers that the catholic is in an invalid marriage.
the woman's marriage will not be recognized by the Catholic church. I don't know about the protestant. --- Neither party's marriage would be recognized as a sacrament, nor as a matrimonial bond. It is considered a civil bond. If a Catholic wishes to have their marriage witnessed by a non-Catholic clergy member, the parties must fulfill all the obligations required by the Catholic Faith, ie: Pre-Cana, preparation of needed documents and certificates. The priest would then request a favor dispensation from the local ordinary (bishop) for the party to be married in a non-Catholic ceremony. This being completed, the marriage is recognized as valid. This process can be applied to non-Christian ceremonies, as well ... a different dispensation is needed. ---
Absolutely they can! The Church recognizes any marriage between two baptized Christians to be both valid and a Sacrament. Catholics are required to marry in the Church, or obtain special permission to marry elsewhere. In this case, all you need to do is talk to your priest and say that you and your significant other wish to be married in the Catholic Church with a Catholic ceremony. Congratulations!
Yes, with the permission of your Priest.
From the Code of Canon Law:
Can. 1118
§1 A marriage between catholics, or between a catholic party and a baptised non-catholic, is to be celebrated in the parish church. By permission of the local Ordinary or of the parish priest, it may be celebrated in another church or oratory.
§2 The local Ordinary can allow a marriage to be celebrated in another suitable place.
§3 A marriage between a catholic party and an unbaptised party may be celebrated in a church or in another suitable place.
A divorced person whose (ex-) spouse is still alive may not marry in the Catholic Church. Anyone who was married and has a civil divorce would have to apply for a decree of nullity (an annulment, which states that no valid marriage ever existed). If an annulment is granted, and there is a divorce, then the person is free to marry. If that person is a protestant, then he would not only have to go through the petition for an annulment, and have it approved (not a sure thing), but then he would have to convert or, at the very least, promise to uphold his spouse's religion and raise the children as Catholic.
Yes but if they have things only "blessed" or whatever you can't do that
yes
Yes, as long as she does not choose a Catholic Church. She will have to find a church that will perform an interdenominational wedding of divorced persons. The Catholic Church will not.
A divorced Protestant woman can not take communion in the Catholic church. According to the Catholic church a divorced woman is committing adultery and can not become a nun.
No.
A divorced man/ woman cannot get married in the catholic church again. The sacrament of matrimony can be received only once in the Roman Catholic Church.
Normally, no.
You should be ok. Many of them welcome all and don't bar anyone in particular from marrying in the Church provided you can afford the service. If you were baptized Catholic and married in a civil ceremony with no church approval at that time, and divorced, you can marry in the Catholic Church. Your new spouse has to meet guidelines, however; for example if he/she was married in the churchas Catholic and divorced he cannot marry you unless his first marriage was annulled.
No. However, it would be possible if the previous marriage were annulled by the Catholic Church. This would be easier if the previous marriage was not within the Catholic Church. If the previous marriage was within the Catholic Church, an annulment is very difficult. It must be demonstrated that the marriage never existed. To be married in the Catholic Church, both man and wife must be Catholic and in good standing with the Church.
yes.
If she is divorced, she would need an annulment first, unless she was married outside the church. Then she can marry a non-catholic only if he was not married before and if he agrees to the oaths taken for catholic marriage.
The family can ask for a Catholic Mass on behave of the deceased. Just because he was divorced does not mean he did not keep his catholic faith.
Yes, as in the case of a non Catholic Christian married in another church and divorced who wants to marry in the catholic church
The church frowns on divorce whether Catholic or not, and recognizes the protestant marriage as valid unless it is annulled. Thus the protestant, if remarried, cannot enter the catholic church unless previous marriage is annulled. If the protestant has NOT remarried, then he/she CAN enter the roman catholic faith, but cannot remarry unless previous marrige is annulled. A lot also depends on the person's previous spouse faith and form of marriage if spouse was Catholic. A sit down with priest would be advised.
