On April 8, the Ruth Institute held a ribbon cutting ceremony for its new headquarters. Present were the Bishop of Lake Charles, His Excellency Glen John Provost, and Mr. Al Williams, the Community Liaison Officer from Mayor Nic Hunter’s office. The Institute’s previous office was destroyed by Hurricane Laura in August 2020.
The ceremony was sponsored by the Southwest Economic Development Alliance, the Chamber of Commerce for the five-parish region of Southwest Louisiana. In her remarks at the event, Ruth Institute President, Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse, Ph.D., said: “It means the world to us to be in a place where the community shares and supports our values.”
She explained: “The Ruth Institute defends traditional Christian sexual ethics, which provide authentic equality and justice for all:
- For every child, a mother and a father.
- For every man, no matter how rich, no matter how powerful, no matter how influential, one and only one wife.
- For every woman, no matter how attractive, no matter how famous, one and only one husband.”
“But some rich, powerful and influential people don’t like this system. They are trying to replace traditional Christian sexual ethics with a more laissez-faire structure. That’s why the Ruth Institute has enemies, and some even go so far as to call us a hate group.”
Morse expressed her gratitude to the community for their ongoing support during the ribbon cutting ceremony. “We are so grateful to our local community and to our supporters near and far, who made this day possible by their prayers and contributions.”
