Matt Black Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 My first marriage broke up due to my wife's adultery and I divorced her for it when it was clear there was no hope of reconciliation. I have since remarried. Were I to convert to Catholicism, would this be a bar to my receiving the Eucharist? Yours in Christ Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adeodatus Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 I assume you're not a Catholic yet since you speak about [i]converting[/i] to Catholicism. If you are becoming a Catholic, your first marriage may be dissolved [i]in favour of the faith[/i], the Pauline privilege. And your marriage now may be convalidated. So, no, you would not be excluded from sharing in the sacramental life of the Church at all. Speak to your parish priest about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
