    • Nicole – How do I find out what relic is in my Church altar, if the parish priest doesn’t know.  Do you think the diocese know.
    • Brian – I’m legally divorced with my ex wife, and working on a annulment.  I’m currently seeing another woman, and we both want to get married in the Church.  Is it okay for us to live together, me in the garage, and living brother/sister until the annulment is complete.  And I still want to take communion in the mean time.
    • Ralph – The two words are similar, monstrance and monstrosity;   What do you think about that, and where it comes from?
    • Val – My daughter engaged to a Greek Orthodox, could a Roman Catholic concelebrate the wedding?
