We are going into the mind and heart of our Founder, Frank Padilla, and learning even more about the Charism of Missionary Families of Christ.
What is the best way to do that? By going through all of his 52 books.
We are going to discuss one book a week over the course of a year. We encourage you to watch, and share these videos. If you have read the books, you don’t need to watch. If you have not read the book, you must watch. It is the way to get into our Charism more.
40 DAYS IN THE STRENGTH OF GOD
In the year 2011, CFC-FFL is 30 years old. Its theme for the year is “My God is now my strength!” (Isaiah 49:5). It is an imposing theme, with the Lord offering the fullness of His grace and strength for the work beyond the 30 years.
With the world in deep darkness, with anti-life and anti-family forces rampaging, with even the Church buffeted from within, there is a great challenge for followers of Christ to stand and be counted, and to give their all for the cause of the Kingdom.
Once again CFC-FFL is at the crossroad. With 30 years of experience in doing God’s work, with all the ups and downs, having been purified and restored, will the army that is CFC-FFL go all out for Jesus? Are the brethren willing to give their all, holding nothing back, even their very lives? Will they as God’s servants take hold of the fullness of God’s grace and be made glorious in the sight of the Lord?
Be with Jesus over these 40 days and understand more clearly what God’s call to CFC-FFL is.
* Walk through the history of CFC by way of the passage on the Servant of the Lord in Isaiah.
* Grasp the profound meaning of the strength of God.
* Appreciate the importance of the crossroad.
* Have a clear understanding of the vision and mission of CFC-FFL.
May we choose the right path, and confidently go forth in the very strength of God.
