GCSE Philosophy and Ethics Practice Exam

Who often provides free counseling to support families within the church?

1. Catechism instructors

2. Marriage Care organizations

3. Sunday school teachers

4. Church ushers

The correct answer is: Marriage Care organizations

The correct answer highlights the role of Marriage Care organizations, which are specifically dedicated to supporting couples and families through various forms of relationship counseling. These organizations often provide professional and trained counselors who can offer guidance, support, and practical help to families facing challenges. Their mission typically aligns with the values of many religious communities, emphasizing the importance of maintaining healthy family relationships. The other options, while they may have roles in a church setting, do not primarily focus on providing extensive counseling services. Catechism instructors generally teach religious education and foundational beliefs. Sunday school teachers primarily engage with children to impart religious teachings. Church ushers usually assist with the logistical aspects of church services, such as seating and collections, rather than providing emotional or relational support.
