Love / American marrying Polish woman in Poland - Church problems [79]

Maybe in the future something can change but it appears this wedding at the end of June is not going to happen. I just wish they would have told us from the beginning before she sent invitations etc...

Oh well

I never said I was unwilling to be baptized, it just wont be possible in this time frame and I would have to have other things like confirmation, I am not opposed to it. Also I already agreed on this application to respect her religion and have children baptized
