Someone who was recently divorced ask me if she could go to communion. It surprises me every time I'm asked that question how many myths are out there about divorce and subsequent annulments. I just wonder if anyone has a question to ask or story to share that might bring light and hope to people who have struggled through a divorce.
I'm happy to help clear up some of the misconceptions or research for you.
For starters, if you are divorced but not remarried you are free to receive Holy Communion and always welcome to come to church and participate in parish functions.
Secondly, an annulment does not cost thousands of dollars. The cost to the petitioner is $350 and even that amount can be adjusted where a need exists.
Other questions? Let's hear from you! You're probably not the only one!
