Something interesting






Dear marriage supporter,

Something interesting is beginning to happen…


Travelling around the country in recent months, I’ve met over a thousand Christians, Jews and Muslims, atheists and agnostics, young people and old, men and women.

There aren’t many areas in life these days where such a diverse group of people can sit together and agree on one thing. But when that one thing is restoring the importance of real marriage to society, it turns out that the unlikely just keeps on happening.

Ignoring the recent inclement weather, supporters joined us on our northern tour which took in Chester, Sheffield, Leicester, Liverpool, Manchester, Glasgow and Edinburgh. And we’ve been invited to speak to yet more groups around the UK.

It is wonderful to present people with the evidence and arguments for one man, one woman marriage. But what's even more amazing is peoples’ desire to spend a considerable time after each session asking questions and discussing together the need and means of restoring this bedrock in our society.

Whether the issue is rising teenage pregnancies, knife crime figures, inappropriate sex education in schools or the gender confusion seemingly prevalent in our culture, we all know the key answers are to be found in supporting and promoting marriage.

We are the only organisation in the UK that reaches so many different kinds of people up and down the country with that one clear message: marriage matters.

So, if you or anyone you know, would like us to come and give an engaging and completely FREE talk on the arguments and evidence supporting traditional marriage, please get in touch. We would love to bring the message to you also.

Yours faithfully,

(Sgnd) Dr Tony Rucinski

  1. Lets invite him to a meeting of the Governing Body. If we make it the April meeting, Justin Welby will be present, so he can kill two birds with one stone. "Kill" is a very unfortunate word, isn't it?

    The writer talks about "rising teenage pregnancy rates". This is nonsense. The Office for National Statistics shows that these have fallen steadily for many years. The highest rate was in 1971 (54.9/1000) while the most recent figures (2018) show a rate of 16.8/1000, the lowest since records began. I accept of course that there may well (or not) be more teenage sexual activity - that's difficult to know. But not pregnancies.
