Małżeństwo i rozwód w Kościele waldensów we Włoszech w perspektywie małżeństwa mieszanego
Marriage and divorce in the Waldensian Church in Italy in the perspective of mixed marriage

Summary/Abstract: The article presents the institution of marriage in the Waldensian Church, which is part of Evangelical churches. Their doctrine constitutes the basis for the inception of the theology of marriage subordinated to the norms of the Italian civil law. Despite the fact that the Waldensian Church supports the durability of marriage, it also allows it to be dissolved if mutual forgiveness and remaining in the brotherly communion within the bosom of the church are preserved. The relations between members of the Waldensian Church and Catholics have led to the development of common principles regarding mixed marriages. These principles are intended to explain the notion of marriage from the perspective of each church, identify conjoint points and discrepancies and establish pastoral guidelines for dealing with this type of marriage from the perspective of Waldensians.
