Roman Catholic AnswerYour question is a little confused, there are three oils, one of which is the Sacred Chrism. There are NOT three oils of Chrism. Sacred Chrism, a mixture of olive oil with a small amount of balm or balsam in it is necessary for the sacrament of confirmation. It is also used in a solemn Baptism, consecration of Churches, and bishops; blessings of major church bells, baptismal water, patens, and chalices. It signifies the full diffusion of grace.

If the previous marriage was within the Catholic Church, an annulment is very difficult. It must be demonstrated that the marriage never existed. To be married in the Catholic Church, both man and wife must be Catholic and in good standing with the Church.
