Hello! I am a Catholic and so is my husband. He got separated for more than 10 years but only got his divorced back in 2001 (from his first wife who is a non-Catholic). Less than a year ago, we got married in a civil ceremony(by the way, his first marriage was also in the same way). I would like to know if we can still get married in a Catholic Church? Some Advise please!

Hello, hgiel.
Please visit a Catholic priest -- tomorrow, if possible. It's best to go to the one at the parish nearest to your home -- where you should begin to attend Mass without delay (though you will not yet be able to receive the sacraments).
The priest will probably be able to help you to resolve the problems you face -- and (again probably) without a great delay.

God bless you.
John
