Catholic Marriage
Published Jan 01, 1900
My friends were about to get married. Nancy was Catholic, but her fiance, Chris, was not. Since they were planning to be married in the Catholic Church, Chris made sure to listen carefully throughout their prenuptial sessions. At one meeting, the priest turned to Chris and told him, "Since you are not Catholic, we shall have the ceremony without Eucharist." Later that day, Chris was noticeably upset. Nancy asked him what was wrong. "I don't understand," he said. "How can we have the ceremony without me?"
