If you and your spouse desire holy matrimony in the Catholic Church, you're invited to convalidate your marriage with Bishop Cristiano Barbosa. A convalidation is an opportunity for couples married outside of the Catholic Church to enter a marriage covenant in the Catholic tradition, be strengthened by God's grace, and be supported by His Church. A husband, wife, and God are like a three-ply chord - "... not easily broken" (Eccl 4:12).
