Re: I think i might be sick...MAJOR Vent!!
let me get this straight -- you gave YOUR church his originals and they lost them?
omg -- did you make a copy? Sounds like a dumb question but maybe they only accept originals but you could use the copy to prove it existed.
Is it a catholic church? Can you take it up with the diocese?
I wouldn't be beyond begging -- hugs to you

FH is Christian, his church was a revival center. his parents didnt believe that he understood baptism since he was an infant so he is dedicated instead. The church closed, it does not have a diocese or anything. any paperwork was given to the family. The church has the original....didnt think we needed another copy and were told wed get it back.....i cant believe it

They do that in the pentecostal faith too -- it's not a baptism but a presentation to the church. They bless the child and that's pretty much it.

I hate to be a downer...but incase all the other options are unavailable...how do you feel about getting wed by a non-denomiational officiant? I know it's a dream of most to be married in a chruch, but if you can't do you have a back up? I sincerely hope you can find a solution to this issue........

I don't know if it's the same thing as what you wanted, but we just went through the process of having the ceremony & marriage recognized by the Catholic church (We wanted a Priest present for the ceremony, but May 17th is a bad day... there's confession sat. afternoons and graduations) Not sure if this is something you'd be interested in...

is it that you have to be married in a catholic church? because there are also non-denominational churches that will marry you
