Can Catholic deacons witness holy matrimony at non-Catholic churches?
If by "witness" you mean act in their official position as a representative of the Catholic Church in witnessing a marriage, then certainly not. Firstly, a Catholic priest is the ordinary witness to a marriage, a deacon would only be fitting in extraordinary circumstances, which are not here present. Secondly, a member of the Catholic hierarchy has no jurisdiction outside of the Catholic Church or over Non-Catholics. While it is true that all those who are validly baptized are baptized as Catholics, Protestants have deliberately removed themselves from the unity of the Catholic Church and Its jurisdiction. Thirdly, Catholics, and certainly Catholic ministers, are not allowed to actively participate in the ceremonies of any form of Christianity (i.e. non-Catholic) that has been condemned by the Church as heretical or schismatic.ANSWER:1. Hmm? Not sure about this. A catholic may certainly attend (and thus witness) the marriage of 2 non-catholics.2. I also believe that an Ordained Catholic Deacon may also serve as "celebrant"/officient at a marriage between 2 catholics in a catholic church/ceremony.3. I believe that an ordained Catholic Deacon may also serve, alongside a protestant minister, in a marriage between a catholic and a non-catholic held in a non-catholic Christian church.4. An ordained Catholic Deacon may NOT serve as THE officiant/celebrant at the marriage of non-catholics in a non-catholic church.This is complicated. More information is needed to answer the question. Recommend consulting a local parish priest.
