Older couples marrying
Briefly News sat down with church deacon Ditsego Morupe in conversation about marriages between older people and his take on the popular Home Affairs wedding trend, and he said:
"Marriage is a gift from God; it doesn't matter where the couple decides to marry, as long as they do it in front of a marriage officiant or someone ordained to carry the service, it is good in the eyes of God."
"Many couples marry at Home Affairs and came back to celebrate in church and get the church prayers. We understand that a marriage can be costly, and in God's eyes, the institution of marriage holds more significance than than where the it was held."
"It is heartwarming to see older people marry, as Genesis 2 verse 18-24 says that God saw that it was not suitable for a man to be alone, that He made a woman out of his rib and presented her to him.
"Some older people are widows, finding love and a companion is good for them as life is meant to be lived happily."
