The Family A Proclamation to the World
• Marriage is central to God’s eternal plan
• Happiness in family life is achieved when founded on the teachings of Jesus Christ
• Successful marriages and families are established and maintained on true gospel principles
The proclamation serves as a guide to create a home of sanctity and a family of righteousness and love. “The more surely you rear your children in the ways of the gospel of Jesus Christ, with love and high expectation, the more likely that there will be peace in their lives,” said Elder Eran A. Call of the Second Quorum of the Seventy. “[The proclamation] teaches and warns against abuse, infidelity and immorality. It promotes wholesome family values based on hard work, discipline, love and recreation, and the teachings of Jesus Christ.
