Promoting family life and committed relationships
by Tonia Elliott (Local Development Officer)
2 July 2009
The last year has been an exciting one for Explore in Berkshire and the Blackwater Valley region, with half-day conferences being run in two new schools. To all our partners, in prayer and financial support, and especially to our volunteer couples and advisor coaches a very big thank you for your essential contributions over the past year. Your participation is touching the lives of hundreds of young people in our area.
“Only marriage can mend broken Britain says judge” was the headline in the Daily Mail on 17th June. You can hear Mr Justice Coleridge, a leading family judge, at the Explore Annual Lecture in London on Thursday 24th September.
As we go into the next academic year we already have invitations from three new schools, and discussions are ongoing with several others. For that we need more volunteer couples and people willing to train as advisor coaches. Are you able to help in this way, or to arrange an invitation with your church, club or organisation for us to come with a 5 minute presentation? Do contact our Local Development Officer if you are interested in getting more involved.
