Church of England House of Bishops

Opis

As an element in the Churchs mission to proclaim the unchanging gospel, and on the eve of the new millennium, the House of Bishops considers it right to reaffirm the Church of Englands teaching on marriage by restating that lifelong marriage should be one of the bedrocks of a rapidly changing society.
This document seeks to relate this teaching to the pastoral needs of people in our communities today, so that they might approach marriage with confidence.
It is intended that this document be used as a stimulus to commend marriage to all people in society, and as a basis for teaching in churches. It carries the full authority of the House of Bishops, one of the most senior bodies of the Church of England.
Please note this is the 1999 edition."
