When couples get married, who follows who where??
Does the woman have to attend the husband's church?? Can it ever be the other way round?

The norm is the woman following her husband, but what if you love a man but you're not okay with his denomination??


You have correctly been answered by the first few posts. That's the essence of courtship - you straighten issues like this up.

If the man is not a strong member in his own church because he love his wife he can decide to follow his wife there is nothing wrong with it the wife may be a worker in her own church she may be a minister or children pastor and d husband a church goer if he follow his wife nothing bad at all

Heard of this "following the man to his church" thing first in Yoruba land. And most say that's the "ideal". Don't be myopic to think what's obtainable in ur place is the ideal worldwide. Like a Yoruba man that went to Zambia and asked the students to lie down while greeting him because that's how "Africans" do. Since when "Yoruba" don become "Africa".

As a CATHOLIC, i'll let you know that the laws of the Church doesn't allow a catholic to move to another church under the cover of marriage. Whether Man or Woman.

If a non-catholic wants to marry a catholic, he/she MUST agree in front of the Priest to not interfere with the faith of the catholic partner. And the children must be raised in the catholic faith in the hands of the catholic partner. whether na man or woman.

The non-catholic partner is free to go to his own church or religion. Such marriages are even done with Dispensations.

There must be a church that overhead the couple's wedding in the first place right?... So I think they should both attend that church. It's no big deal. cool

What if they live in portharcour and married in Lagos and there is no branch of the church in port Harcourt.
Re: Whose Church Is The Family Church?? by Nobody: 8:14pm On Nov 13, 2014
Not always like that bro. The marriage ceremony most times is conducted by the ladies Church if she belongs to one, then after the wedding proper, they both can then move to the man's Church that is if both of them come from different places of worship.

I'm Yoruba and I have never heard of any of this.

In Yorubaland where wife is muslim, husband is christian, I call bullshoit on what you typed up there.

Why fight over this foreign deity, Both should stop goin to church and safe from brainwashing. What does where you go to church has to do with my love 4 U. Some ppl will get divorce bcus of different faith, what a shame. I know ppl of difeerent faith that are married for almost 30 yrs. Religion is causing too many problem for us. Let's go of the baggage, another issue to divide us. These oyinbo ppl did a number on us to keep us fighting. Religion is man's invention. Who want to go to church with all the immorality that's goin on there, stealing, lying, fornication, sexing, etc.. Church is like a meat market or a night club, you pay to get in (tithe)and watch the dancing show(band), with skimply dress ladies (ushers,members) showing their breast and legs. and some guy called pastor( love-vendor) screaming.

So now that he has married you, you woke up from your slumber and realized his church is not good..... the same church you gladly follow him to when you come over for weekend? now that you have gotten what you want, it is not good again..... dont worry when your pretence wears off, you will start telling him you wish he was someone else...... schemers

Any one, both of u choose to go,either d wife or husband. The main thing is to maintain going to just a church after marriage, if both parties decide to go to different churches it will be bad for d children and d marriage.
