Standing up for marriage

A joint meeting of CARE, EA and CI to bring an update on the Scotland for Marriage campaign in respect of the Scottish Government's proposal to introduce same-sex marriage.

The Christian Institute, CARE for Scotland and the Evangelical Alliance are holding a joint meeting near Inverness to encourage supporters to get behind the Scotland for Marriage campaign. Representatives from all three organisations will speak at the meeting.

Scotland for Marriage aims to mobilise concerned citizens throughout Scotland to oppose redefining marriage.

The Scottish Government's consultation on redefining marriage to introduce same-sex marriage closed on 9th December 2011, but we know that groups wanting to redefine marriage are now lobbying MSPs behind the scenes.

Redefining marriage is a profoundly important issue affecting generations to come. The new definition would become the standard one promoted by public bodies, including schools.

The meeting offers an opportunity to hear what practical steps supporters might take to help the campaign and defend marriage as the union of one man and one woman.
