enable parents involved in arranged marriages to investigate the background of potential suitors. It can be a worry for parents finding the best candidate
for a son or daughter.But unlike other dating and matrimonial sites like Shaadi.com, Shaadi4Christians will also give parents their own access to the site

who have arranged for their sons or daughters to be married to suitors in America, Europe or the United Kingdom through other websites is that they
have often been mislead by suitors.
“After marrying vulnerable Christian daughters men prevent communication of their wives with families in their respective homelands and have been known to be extremely brutal. Many of these men hold a very nominal Christian belief and simply want a wife who is domesticated rather then career-driven and one over whom they can exert control. This site will enable parents to better understand the nature of the suitor.”
There’s no rush on Shadi4Christians which provides space and opportunities for you to review site members, contact them and arrange safe

being part of the entire body of Christ we are encouraging non-Asian Christians to join up too. Whether your black, white or brown if you are Christian

the message boards and local meetups.
