Is it a mortal sin for someone who was Catholic to leave the Church and get married in a protestant church and have her sisters and brother in the wedding?
.Catholic AnswerThe short answer is "yes" it is a mortal sin. Leaving the Catholic Church is a mortal sin, it is called apostasy and is *very* serious. Getting married in a protestant church without permission is a serious sin. Leading others into sin is called scandal and is a very serious sin (your brother and sisters). Inviting anyone who is Catholic to this wedding would be several serious sins, starting with scandal. All in all, this scenario is just racking up serious mortal sins like they are going out of style. I would suggest that you call your pastor, make an appointment, and sit down and discuss all of this with him, and possibly make a confession at the same time, and see what can be worked out. By the way, there is no such thing as "was Catholic", there is only a Catholic who is not attending Mass and confession, that is a Catholic who is living in mortal sin, which, needless to say, has eternal consequences.
