There are some situations where the usual in-depth formal process for marriage nullity is not required.
Question Corner
Question Corner: How much should an annulment cost?
Nobody should be deterred from approaching their diocesan marriage tribunal due solely to a lack of funds.
Question Corner: A priest with grandchildren and a question on tattoos
Provided that he is otherwise suitable, a man can be ordained to the priesthood if he is presently unmarried and willing to commit to a life of chaste celibacy going forward — even if he had been previously married or is a father to children.
Question Corner: prayer’s validity and whether priests can make mistakes
God is indeed present always and everywhere, and he loves us unconditionally no matter where we are. It’s not as though God is somehow absent from us unless (or until) we say a certain prayer.
Question Corner: Post-COVID, why can’t we use intinction rather than the communal cup?
The Unites States Conference of Catholic Bishops specifically allows for the possibility of intinction in its document “Norms for the Distribution and Reception of Holy Communion under Both Kinds in the Dioceses of the United States of America.”
Question Corner: Is it a sin to argue?
Simply having an emotion is morally neutral experience, so merely feeling angry is certainly not a sin.
Question Corner: Are Protestant martyrs of the English Reformation heretics or in heaven?
Heresy consists of an obstinate — that is, persistent and stubborn — rejection of Catholic teaching by a person after they were baptized.
Question Corner: Who is condemned and why do Catholics wear crucifixes?
As Catholics, we believe that God created us with free will, meaning that we decide for ourselves to love God and seek to follow his commandments; or we can choose to reject or ignore God.
Question Corner: Why can’t any sacrament be received at any church?
Some sacraments are intended to be ordinarily celebrated in specific churches, and marriage is one of these sacraments.
Question Corner: Baptismal certificate function; annulments and hell
When Catholics request a copy of their baptismal certificate, their parish of baptism issues a new hard copy based on the information in the baptismal register.
Question Corner: How can Father Rupnik remain a priest after dismissal from Jesuits?
Religious life is a call to follow Christ more closely by living a vowed life in community according to the evangelical counsels of poverty, chastity, and obedience.
Question Corner: Can an “ecumenical Catholic service” satisfy our Sunday obligation?
The short answer to your question is that anything other than a normal Catholic Mass would not fulfill one’s Sunday obligation.
