Marriage was established by God, and it cannot be redefined — see the passion among these faithful Christian people in this Jan. 30 crowd in Maryland. The clear-minded pastors firmly tell it like it is.

Everyone is here because of one man and one woman, the chanting crowd says to the legislators. This was a rally like no other!

The event was sponsored by the Maryland Marriage Alliance. Joining in on the gathering was TFP Student Action.

Several key leaders in the fight for traditional marriage testified before a Senate committee on the definition of marriage last week. See this great video to hear some clear thinkers.

Calls Same-Sex Marriage “Untested Social Experiment”

Archbishop John Nienstedt of St. Paul and Minneapolis has asked every pastor in the archdiocese to form a committee to garner support for the state marriage amendment that will appear on the ballot in November 2012. This is a welcome sign of leadership. Read the full story on Catholic Culture, “Archbishop Nienstedt calls for marriage-amendment committee in every parish.”

Enthusiastic support was the response to a team of Illinois citizens who brought the message to various cities throughout the state last month about the referendum petition to define marriage as “between one man and one woman.” (See video at right.)

The group, which made the tour Aug. 22-26 to 18 stops in nine cities, was joined by ten members of TFP (Tradition, Family, Property)  as well as local people at every stop in supporting traditional marriage.

There was overwhelming support from traffic and pedestrians at all stops. Car horns continued to honk non stop in response to banners and signs from TFP announcing the reason for being on the streets, and in response to the several “Honk if you support one man, one woman traditional marriage” signs. Positive responses outnumbered negative ones at least fifty to one. The largest turnout of local persons, thirty, was in Rockford.
