Q: Please help me with a matter weighing on my conscience. My husband and I married in our parish church 16 years ago, but I agreed to get married there only because thats what my parents wanted. Unlike my husband, I wasnt really practicing my faith, I just went through the motions
gradually I had a reawakening of faith, and now am fully committed to the Catholic Church. But Im afraid our marriage isnt valid because I didnt embrace concepts like indissolubility at the time of our wedding, nor did I want children, although I later changed my mind
. What do we need to do, to make our marriage right? I asked our parish priest, and he told me not to worry about it, but I am worried! Marilena

Your 'marriage'is an act, an event, and if it is one man and one woman for the sake of having a family (God's plan) it is 'blessed' in the sense it has been done according to God's plan and God's will.
Blessed, in the spiritual sense is a conscious knowledge of God in your lives .. your 'marriage', and THAT is a personal relationship between you and God.
The correct question (each should ask and receive confirmation of .. ) is .. am I blessed. ?

But if Marilenas failure to consent to her marriage at the time of her wedding has somehow become a matter of public knowledge, it is necessary for her and her husband to exchange consent now in a new ceremony, following canonical form
So she was fine, until she wrote a letter available to the public including her unusual first name.

I know little of canon law, but claiming your own blog is ‘copyrighted’ is dishonest.
