Celebrating Marriage


This week is National Marriage Week in the UK. It aims to motivate and empower people to support marriage in the community and to promote marriage as an important basis for stable family and community life.


Speaking about the week Archbishop of Westminster Vincent Nichols said, "it provides the opportunity for people to focus on this important and vital relationship within society".

“When you talk to people, and certainly in the work that our co-ordinators are doing in the dioceses, what comes across really strongly is that most people want to be married”, says Hannah Moruzzi, Marriage & Family Life Communications Officer at the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of England & Wales

She adds,”the key thing that we have going on during Marriage Week are the celebrations around the country.”

UK Marriage Week continues until February 14th. Listen RealAudioMP3
