No, as long as he & his x-spouse are divorced. Then it is fine.
Yes, he does if he was previously married.
Yes, it does - the annulment by the catholic Church is universal.
You may receive communion as a divorced Catholic, but not upon remarriage, unless you first have an annulment. This is true regardless of where your marriage was performed because all marriages are presumed valid. The church will consider you married until you receive an annulment, but you have not sinned simply by being divorced.
Roman Catholic AnswerThe only way that you can be married in a Catholic Church if you are not already married. So, if you are married, and it was in the Anglican Church, then you would indeed need an annulment if you wished to marry someone else in a Catholic ceremony.
Roman Catholic AnswerNo, there is no such ceremony or procedure. Anyone who is validly married to a living spouse is incapable of remarriage in the Church. You may be thinking of an annulment which is a decree of nullity (a statement that no marriage exists - thus allowing a marriage of someone who had been married in the eyes of the state but not in the eyes of the Church). There is certainly no ceremony connected with an annulment.
A divorced Baptist male may or may not need an annulment of his prior marriage from the Catholic Church in order to marry a Catholic in the Catholic Church. Although Baptists are able to re-marry after divorce, Catholics may divorce but may not re-marry unless the sacrament of the first marriage has been declared null. If the divorced Baptist did not have a valid Christian marriage (that is, one spouse was not a validly baptized Christian, or the ceremony was not Christian, then the annulment process is much simpler - but any prior marrriages still need to be declared null). If the first marriage was a valid Christian ceremony, then the couple desiring a marriage in the Catholic church will have to go through the 'formal' annulment process which takes considerably longer and is very thorough but very worthwhile if you love this person. The Catholic person cannot enter into a valid marriage unless this is done.
If the divorced person is not remarried without an annulment of the first marriage the Church simply considers them as separated. The Church does not recognize divorce. Therefore they are able to fully participate at Mass and the sacraments. However, if the person has remarried without first obtaining an annulment they are considered adulterous. They are welcome to assist at Mass but are banned from receiving the sacraments until such time as they have annulled the first marriage and then been married again in the Church.
Yes if there is an annulment. No if there is a divorce.
.Catholic AnswerMaybe, you would have to speak to a priest and pursue an annulment (a decree of nullity). The Church would have to examine your civil marriage and find out if it was a valid marriage or not according to Church law. If it was not a valid marriage, then they will issue a decree of nullity saying that you are free to marry.
Depending on the grounds for annulment (i.e., the Catholic couple did not marry in the Catholic Church) an annulment may take only a few months. Catholics are forbidden to marry outside the Catholic Church. For example, if one or 2 Catholics were merely married by a Justice of the Peace ("the secular state"), no sacramental marriage existed in the first place. An annulment would still be required if the couple divorced and one or both wanted to marry another in the Catholic Church. That annulment, however, could be pretty easily and quickly attained. Most annulments take between 1 to 2 years to obtain. And, not all Catholic marriages can be annulled. There must be legitimate grounds on which to annul any marriage.
The only time you need to have an annulment is if one or both of you were married in the Catholic ChurchAnswer: Yes you'll need to obtain an official decree of annulment from the Catholic Church before you can be married again, this time in the Church. Such an annulment can be obtained pretty quickly though. Contact your parish priest.
If there are no impediments (eg: previously married and divorced without an annulment), all you need to do is talk to the pastor and arrange for the marriage to be blessed by the Church. Now, if there is some impediment, you will also need to talk with the pastor to regularize the situation.
