Bringing in the Family into the Couples for Christ Community

Couples for Christ, in1993, became acommunity of FAMILIES!

Couples for Christ started in 1981 with16 couples. And it was a community for couples for some time. It was only in 1993when the couples in Couples for Christdecided to bring in the whole family into thecommunity. And it was in that year that theFamily Ministries were born.

And these ministries have brought theGood News to the ends of the earth to theyoung, and to their families!

One instance comes to mind. At a Youth Camp in South Africa, 13 year oldboys were asked: If there was one thingyoud like to change in the world, whatwould it be, and why?

The first boy said he would makeeveryone the same color, so there wouldbe no racism nor discrimination.

The second boy said he would makeeveryone have the same amount of money,so there would be no rich and no poor.

The third boy said he would make allhomes look the same, so there would be nojealousy.

And the last boy said that he would dohis best to make everyone realize that theywere children - a son or a daughter - of God, so nothing else would matter. Becauseeveryone would be helping each other asbrothers and sisters.

A great reminder of the importance of the message we are preaching to the endsof the earth. A message that is for every

member of the family.The young ministries - CFC Kids for

Family and Life, CFC Youth for Family andLife and CFC Singles for Family and Life -have continuously improved and expandedto be where the young people are. Now weare evangelizing in campuses, high schools,call centers, public elementary schools,Sangguniang Kabataan chapters and soon

every place where you can find a kid, youthor single.

And now, there are even advocacies tofurther our cause. There is the LIVE PUREMOVEMENT that has touched tens of thousands of people from all over thePhilippines and the world. And also theCOOL CATHOLICS advocacy which teachesus to understand and appreciate more our faith.

Truly, the CFC FFL community is acommunity of empowered families!
