Can a divorced woman be Catholic?

If she is divorced but not remarried, she can be a Catholic. If she has remarried she will need to seek an annulment of the first marriage before she can fully participate in the Catholic Church. .


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.


Can a non-Catholic divorced woman marry a Catholic man who is a widower?

Yes why not. The marriage is valid. But it won't be a sacrament for the non catholic woman and the marriage won't be celebrated in a mass.


Can a divorced non Catholic man marry a Catholic woman in a Catholic church if his first marriage was a civil one but the wife was baptized in the English Church and there is a child?

No, the church recognizes your first marraige as valid, and the only way is to have the first marriage annuled by the church, if such is warranted. This is possible, only if you have good case, but is a long involved process. Then, after that, you would need to understand the commitment that a Catholic marriage means fo raisng children in the catholic faith.


Can a divorced Catholic man marry a non-Catholic woman?

I would think so.. I mean, I personally think it does not matter what religion you are to fall in love.A. Yes but not in a Catholic Church. And, if a divorced Catholic man marries a non-catholic woman - without first securing an annulment of his 1st marriage -- then his 2nd marriage to the non-catholic woman is invalid. He is deliberately committing adultery, a mortal/very grave sin and he will not be able to extricate himself from this sin easily once married. In civil/secular terms, we'd call it bigomy.First, do the right thing -- obtain an annulment of your first marriage IF you can. Not everyone can have their marriage annulled. Many do not. There must be legitimate grounds and it's an involved process not so dissimilar from a civil divorce.


Can a non Catholic man who married in the Catholic church marry in the Catholic church again?

no. his marriage would be considered invalid. he can marry again if the man converts into catholicism.ANSWER: Yes, if he obtains an Annulment of his first marriage. He would be free to marry a Catholic woman in a Catholic Church/ceremony even if he's still a non-Catholic. Of course, if you're pursuing your 2nd Catholic woman, perhaps it's time to consider joining the Catholic Faith. There must be something you like.

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 non-catholic man marry a catholic woman if his previous marriage was a civil ceremony performed at home without the declaration of nullity?

If the man was baptized Catholic, married in a civil ceremony and then divorced, yes, he can marry a Catholic woman in a Church ceremony in the presence of the priest or deacon with proper paper work completed. He could also marry again in a civil ceremony. You need to talk to a priest and apply for an annulment which is a ruling from the Church that no sacramental marriage is present from the civil marriage.


Can a divorced Catholic man who's first marriage was outside the church marry a non-Catholic woman in a Catholic church without an annulment?

Roman Catholic AnswerNo, anytime there is an attempt at marriage on record, that attempt must first be declared void before the Church can perform a marriage. So if there was a first marriage - regardless of the circumstances, it must still be declared null and void before permission can be granted for a marriage. Speak to your parish priest about this as soon as possible as annulment is long and involved. The Church normally assumes the attempted marriage was valid when beginning an investigation, and all judgments must be appealed to Rome. However, if you were a Catholic when you attempted a marriage outside the Church, in this instance, they will probably assume that there was not a valid marriage and the annulment might not take as long.
