Inter-Faith Marriages

  • Roman Catholics wishing to marry Christians of other denominations must approach their priest for a dispensation, usually the priest will grant this.
  • If one or other of the partners is not baptised, or belongs to a non-Christian religion or is an atheist, a dispensation  is needed. You must apply to the bishop of the diocese to grant this. Again your local priest will arrange that.
