Last Chance to Register for the Postal Vote on Marriage

Australia will soon have a postal vote on whether to change the definition of marriage to enable same-sex marriages.  This is a change that affects marriage for everyone, and it is important that everyone’s vote counts.  If you have moved house, or recently become eligible to vote in Australian elections, you must update your electoral enrolment by 24 August 2017 to participate. Go to the AEC website (http://www.aec.gov.au/) to check or change your registration, or to register online.  More information and the relevant links are also available at the Coalition For Marriage website (http://www.coalitionformarriage.com.au/anglican).

Support the Coalition for Marriage

The Coalition for Marriage is coordinating the campaign to oppose changes to the Marriage Act. The Diocese of Sydney is a lead partner in the Coalition for Marriage, joining with over 80 organisations in support of the campaign to defend Australia’s man-woman definition of marriage. If you would like to support the Coalition for Marriage, you can sign up as a volunteer or provide financial support at http://www.coalitionformarriage.com.au/anglican.

What has God Joined Together?

The Diocesan booklet entitled What has God Joined Together? is now available online at  http://www.sydneyanglicans.net/marriage. It explains God’s pattern for marriage, why it is best for society as a whole, and the negative consequences of same-sex marriage. Please make use of this resource.
