Welcome to Marriage Week in Australia
Marriage Week is a great time to reassess marriage. A time to see that it is more than a piece of paper, a word, or a contract. Marriage is a relational institution that makes two people one entity - a great team.
Our marriages are not private matters. Our children, gain emotional security and a myriad of benefits from our marriage, our love and union. Our marriages matter to our extended family. They matter to our employers.
They matter to society. They are the fabric that holds families together.
On average married people live longer and have good relationships with their children; families enjoy better physical health, married men earn more money.
Wow, that puts a lot of weight on marriage!
So, do something for your marriage in this week in September.
Write a letter of thanks or praise to show your love for your spouse. Buy them a special gift, it does not have to be large or expensive. Go out on a date, share a picnic, just do something romantic! Celebrate your married life together.
Marriage Week 12th - 19th September 2010
