Question
I was married two months ago in the Episcopal Church. While I thought he was truthful about finances I now find out that he owes over $20,000. I am having a hard time forgiving him. Although I am in my 60’s, this has forced me to take three jobs to try and pay it off. I am so angry about his lies! Can I get an annulment? Please pray that I might find it in myself to forgive him.
Response
If you are a Catholic and got married in the Episcopal church without a dispensation, then (after a civil divorce) you could apply for a declaration of nullity because of a lack of canonical form. Catholics are required to get married before a priest or deacon. The documents required are as follows: baptismal certificate, copy of marriage license and divorce decree. If you can make the relationship work then you should see a priest about a convalidation.
