Question
Here's my situation, I am a baptized Catholic, needing confirmation. My fiance is Christian (non-catholic) we have 3 children together and wish to marry in the church.

If I am able to get married with 3 kids out of wedlock, in other words CAN I get married?
secondly, how would I go about it?

thank you in advance for your response to

      I can answer your question in general terms, however I feel it would best for you to contact a local parish priest. He can better answer your personal needs. There maybe special laws or norms within your diocese.
     You don't need to be confirmed to be married or to receive the Sacrament of Holy Matriony.

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.
