"The right joining in marriage is the work of the Lord only, and
not the priests' or magistrates, for it is God's ordinance and not
man's; and therefore Friends cannot consent that they should join
them together: for we marry none; it is the Lord's work, and we are
but witnesses." So wrote George Fox in 1669 in Quaker Faith &
Practice 16.01. How can any couple be clear that they are called to
steadfast commitment to each other? How can the meeting witness
this divine work, and uphold the couple? The Quaker understanding
of marriage is rooted in our history, unique, yet evolving. How
could a meeting support a couple of the same sex who ask to
celebrate their life long commitment before God and in the care of
the meeting? This is a practical and inspiring book for those
responsible for oversight or eldership. It will help registering
officers and everyone concerned for committed partnerships. Couples
considering their life together may find this informative and
supportive.
