For Your Marriage TV Spots

Dear Friends:

With our R-74 ballot initiative regarding the Washington State legislature's attempt to redefine marriage, it's good to keep up on some of the positive resources that we can share at parish meetings and catechetical settings in our local parishes.  Here's a very good video link from YouTube that shows the latest television spots on marriage from the USCCB's marriage web site.  Click here to view:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzIw6kf6AxE&feature=player_embedded
