If the divorce is not recognized by the church, that would be correct.

Right you are.

Thank you.

And --- risking a confusion in terminology, but here goes ---- the only "divorce" recognized by the Church, would be one where the initial marriage never involved the making of a vowed lifelong bond in the sight of God, to begin with. In other words, the "divorce" of a marriage that could not have been considered truly and permanently binding from the git-go. Something wrong with the initial "glue."

Which is to say, you'd need a church investigation resulting in a formal finding of nullity. An annulment.
