Letter: Love the one you're with

I AM very disappointed at the disparaging way you reported National Marriage Week. Yes, the state of marriage is a mess, but please give credit to people like Marriage Resource who are trying to make a difference, however small, in some people's lives by offering them the resources and opportunity to help their relationships to grow.

Over 300 people, single, married, divorced, separated, bereaved, took part in our parish community's week of events on marriage, where we focused on how we could communicate and listen more effectively. Forty couples renewed their vows. Rather than continually discourage, couldn't we occasionally look at what we can celebrate?
