Action To Support Christian Marriage

Late last year Federal Parliament passed a Greens motion calling on MPs to consult with their constituents on whether Australia should introduce same sex marriage. The motion is putting pressure on the Gillard Government to renege on its election promise to keep marriage between a man and a woman. It is urgent that we record the strength of feeling in the Christian community for support of marriage as being between one man and one woman.

Politicians respond to numbers. In 2003 we saved marriage because of the new record set in the number of submissions by Christians to a Senate Inquiry.  In the absence of an Inquiry, one of the most effective ways of recording the size of the constituency that supports marriage is to raise an electronic petition for submission to the Senate in Canberra. 

It takes just a few seconds. Please share the link with your church networks and encourage your friends to sign the petition:  http://www.makeastand.org.au/campaign/index.php?campaign_id=39#petition

Make It Stand is a service of the Australian Christian Lobby which deserves our full support on this issue.
