There is no such thing as a trial marriage in the Catholic Church. You are either married or not. There is nothing in between.

Does a catholic have to enter into a trial marriage for 12 months?

Roman Catholic Answer:No, I have never heard of such a thing. Marriage is a sacrament for life, there is no such thing as a "trial marriage" in the church.


Can a catholic enter into a trial marriage for 12 months?

No. Trial marriages are gravely contrary to the nature of the sacrament of marriage. Marriage in the catholic faith is the permanent, faithful union between a man and a woman. A trial marriage by definition is not permanent, and in a sense not faithful because it is not truly binding.


Can a person who was married and divorced while a protestant be admitted to the roman catholic faith?

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.

What is necessary for a Catholic to enter a valid marriage?

One must be catholic, the other can be of different religion but must allow the children to be raised Catholic, must have Baptism, Confirmation, and Holy Communion records, state license, and pre-Cana counseling. The marriage must take place in a Church before a Bishop, Priest, or Deacon, preferably the home parish of the Catholic bride.


Would the Catholic Church allow a Catholic woman to marry a Muslim man?

A mixed marriage is a marriage between a Catholic and a non-Catholic. Disparity of Cult is a marriage between a Catholic and a non-baptized person. The later case is a diriment impediment to marriage, which may only be overcome with special permission from the Bishop. However, it is *never* recommended due to the problems involved in the marriage, the danger to the Catholic's faith, and the determent to the children from that marriage.


Can a divorced Catholic man marry to a Catholic convert woman in the Catholic church?

The answer depends upon whether the Catholic man's first marriage was canonically valid, and, if so, whether he has been granted an annulment. The marriage of a Catholic in a civil ceremony, for example, is not canonically valid in the eyes of the Church. In most cases, such a marriage would not require an annulment for a second marriage in the Church to take place. If, however, the first marriage was valid in the eyes of the Church, as for example, a Catholic wedding, then it will be necessary for the man's first marriage to be annuled before he can validly contract a second Catholic marriage.

What are some reasons the Catholic Church may declare a marriage Null and Void?

Roman Catholic AnswerA decree of nullity (popularly called an annulment) is issued if it can be proved that no valid marriage ever took place. The easiest one would be lack of form: one of the people attempting the marriage was a Catholic and they attempting marriage outside the Church, without a priest or permission to do so - for instance a Catholic who "married" someone in a protestant ceremony or before a Justice of the Peace. Or if they had entered a valid marriage, got a civil divorce, and then attempted to marry again - the second "marriage" would be declared null. Other cases are more difficult, the person had a Catholic wedding but they attempt to prove that something was missing that was necessary for a valid marriage - complete consent, or intention to be open to life (not to enter into a marriage intending to use birth control).
