jnghh 0 Report post Posted September 12, 2008 Ltt,Are you currently a member of a church? If you are, I suggest you either talk to your pastor or your church staff to see whether they can help. Different denominations and sometimes different churches will have different policies on this, but in many cases, churches will require 1) one or both partners to be Christian and/or 2) a member of their church and/or3) a member of their denomination Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

linglim 0 Report post Posted September 13, 2008 hi Sunny kiss,I'm Catholic too. I know about the marriage preparation course...but I was wondering if you can share with me what it's all about.Should I be prepared in some way? My HTB is a very newly baptised Catholic and I was wondering is there's anything I should let him know about the course.Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you.Hi, pls go to the parish office & ask the church that u have chosen for your wedding. The marriange course is call CMPC which can be 2 days course or 6 weeks course. Upon registration for your course, u need to prepare your baptise cert if the parish officer do not know u well.Different catholic church has different policy. For my case, I had my CMPC in Assumption on Feb, ROM on May & wedding on Sept. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
juanil 0 Report post Posted December 30, 2008 Hi insideurheaven,Yeah, I agree with xiaomaomi. You should go and check with your church's parish office. Different church have different policies. As for my cathedral in Kuching, our pre-marriage course will take about 8 - 10 days and we can have our ROM as on our AD in church.Cheers! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For my case, me and FH did not go to church for almost 1 year. Recently we went back to church for almost 2 months now and going to prepare our pre-marriage course in this coming February. Btw, both of us are baptized. Cheers! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

faithyng 0 Report post Posted December 31, 2008 Only baptised Catholics are allowed to be married in the Church. Because the couple will take one of the 7 Sacraments that is Sacrament Of Matrimony that is very sacred and significant. Same as only baptised Catholics can have communion. Even those who are not attending Mass for a long time also cannot receive communion. We had the Engaged Encounter in College General, Penang for 3 days. Different Churches have diferent practise.

juanil 0 Report post Posted December 31, 2008 misy,What faithyng mentioned above is very true. For us Catholic, only baptized then can have a Wedding Mass which for us is very grand and blessed. For those who are not baptized and those who are pregnant before married, they can only have Wedding Blessings instead of Wedding Mass.Hope my info does help.Cheers!
