RESPONSE: I am surprised, that it appears that before this directive, the Catholic Church allowed full Service to marriages of mixed religious partys. To my knowledge in the U.K. and Canada in case one of the participants is a non Catholic a shortened service is held without Mass. Of course there could be exception to these rules - as there in any Society and any Religion. Gabe Menezes London England.
