- Do I Need an Annulment?
  
  Pamphlets that offer annulment information are available in the Gathering Area on the Formation kiosk.
  
  Good Shepherd Catholic Church has three Tribunal Advocates who can advocate for you with an annulment or questions you may have. If you prefer, you may contact our Lexington Diocese Tribunal Office for an advocate referral other than those at Good Shepherd, 859-253-1993. Please understand that Tribunal Advocates can responsibly work on only a few cases at a time.
  
  Personal information gained through an annulment is completely confidential, not shared with parish staff, and only privy to the Secretariat of Canonical Affairs and Tribunal Office.
