Question
Can my fiance and I get married in a catholic church even though I am not catholic and he is?

Answer
Peace



dear Samantha


The simple answer is yes. He would need to write to the local bishop for permission. His pastor can help you with the details.

Expertise

I am willing to attempt to answer any question. If I don’t know the answer, I will look-up or pass the question on to friends for feed back. Beside Catholicism (especially the social/moral and the Eastern rites), I am well read on Mormonism and so-called Modern Christian Fundamentalism. Also I study Franciscan History as means of growing in my lay Franciscan calling to holiness in Christ.
