Hi all, my husband and I are currently having our marriage convalidated since we were not married in the Church (he is So. Baptist).
Today, we went over some questions and filled out paperwork. Then our priest got to the “you promise to raise your children in the Catholic faith…have them baptized Catholic, etc.” part and my husband kinda “freaked”.
He said he was caught off guard by the question because he didn’t know I would have to promise this. I thought I’d mentioned it to him before, but maybe he didn’t understand what I was saying.
At any rate, he said that he feels okay with it, but just wants some time to think and talk about it (we don’t have children yet).
Please pray for our decision on this, as his refusal will certainly affect our marriage and my participating in the Catholic faith.
Thank you!!
