WHAT is the Best Age for MARRIAGE? - Herbert W Armstrong - June 1964

Herbert W Armstrong

In Principles of Living Class in Ambassador College. England, this question was asked of Mr. Armstrong. Thousands of our new readers have been asking for the answer. Some time ago I officiated at a wedding in stately Memorial Hall at Ambassador College in England. My next-to-youngest grandson, Richard David Armstrong II, then age two and a half, thought the ceremony so very nice, he said, "Mommie, I want to get married!" "Well!" answered his mother, a little shocked - a little amused, "and whom do you want to marry?" "Karen," replied little Dicky promptly. "But Karen has just been married. She can't marry anybody else, now," "Well then." decided Dicky, I'll marry Sheila." Sheila is a very nice Irish colleen, and was then a student in the college. "But Sheila is grown up now, and in college," protested "Mommie." "What if she won't have you?" "Then I'll marry you, Mommie," came the quick decision. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
