Definition of Divorce
▪ Divorced Catholic can receive Holy Communion who has not been
remarried and got an annulment.
▪ And they can still receive the sacraments.
▪ But the Catholics who were civilly divorced should speak to
their parish priest or spiritual director about their
situation regarding reception of Holy Communion
▪ Please see the Catechism of the Catholic Church, nos. 2382-
2386, for more information.
Annulments
▪ Often when people talk about “children of divorce”, they only have in
mind young children and teens who are still living at home with one
or the other parent after the separation. But as a Huffington Post
series called “When My Parents Split Up” reminds everyone, divorce
causes pain and confusion for children, no matter how old they are.
▪ Toria, who was four when her parents split up, says that she never
knew any other way of being a family. She thinks she may have been
confused at first, but in the end just accepted reality as it came to her.
In this way, she says, “There was no real sense on my part of change
or loss. The world made sense because at that age whatever happens
around you is normal and just the way things are supposed to be.”
She thinks that one of the impacts of the divorce is that she is not
concerned about getting married herself.
Children of Divorce, Including Adults
▪ Luke 16:18
▪ “Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another
woman commits adultery, and the man who marries a
divorced woman commits adultery.
