Marriage and Family

Topic Primer

At the very beginning, God created the family as one of the great building blocks in society. He also established marriage from the dawn of creation, and He officiated at the first ever wedding service. Strong families are foundational to a healthy society. Marriages too are vital, representing the gold standard of commitment. Our vision is to see society transformed by families being strengthened and more support being given to help couples stay together.
