Roman Catholic AnswerIf the divorced Catholic has an annulment (a decree that no valid marriage ever existed), then yes, she would be free to marry. If there is no annulment, the Church assumes a valid marriage and she could not marry again. She would have to take the case up with her pastor and the diocesan marriage tribunal.
Widowed, yes, but the divorce concept is against the teaching of the Catholic church. Unless the divorce was allowed by the church, you may have a hard time to get into being a nun. Of course, there maybe certain exceptions to this, such as a difficult marriage ect, but this divorce should have been removed by the Church first before you can considering becoming a nun.
The non-Catholic would need to have his marriage annulled by the church before they are free to marry, as the catholic church recognizes the validity of the Presbyterian marriage. If annulment is approved, he does not need to join the Catholic Church, but must be willing to consent to her oath to bring up any children as catholic

Both persons' first marriages must be annulled by Church, and then the couple must marry with a Catholic ceremony. If either of the first marriages are found valid by the Church and are not annulled, then the Catholic and divorced non-Catholic cannot validly marry in the eyes of the Church.
The Church will not marry a Catholic to someone who is divorced because it is a sin.
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.
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.
Yes. Although the church frowns upon divorce, the divorced Catholic remains a Catholic and can continue to receive all the sacraments, unless the Catholic remarries without formal permission of the Church (annulment).
