In October, my husband (the son of a Methodist minister) and I were married in a Roman Catholic Church. The priest who married us allowed my father-in-law to help officiate. Some may not agree, but we think it was beautiful. Having said that, I don’t think your mother-in-law to be has asked for special treatment. If they’re anything like my family/in-laws, they will be respectful of your wishes. My advice is to have a priest familiar with interfaith couples help in the process. I should mention that while my husband is not Catholic, he goes to church with me every week. He respects my prayer time, and we even read the Bible and Catechism together.

God bless and congratulations.

Maria

I do hope that the priest had the Bishop’s permission when he allowed the Methodist Minister to “concelebrate.” It would be required, and I don’t believe most Bishops would allow it.
