BOOKS ON CORE VALUES
November 1, 2019
We as Missionary Families of Christ (MFC) are defined by our statements of Vision and Mission, as well as our Core Values. Our Core Values describe who we are and what we are called to do in the world. They provide parameters and constant guideposts in the pursuit of our life and mission. The extent of the effectiveness of our life and mission depends a great deal on the extent to which we live out our Core Values.
To better understand who are are and what we are called to do, we have our formation programs. In addition, we have books specifically written to support our life and mission. These books have particular value as follows:
- These books are about key aspects of the Christian life, thus helping all to understand God’s call and attain to holiness;
- These books are on topics particularly relevant to our life and mission, thus helping our brethren understand who we are and what we are called to do, and in doing so, helps keep us committed to the life and mission of MFC; and
- These books are very scripture-based, and readers end up reading and understanding very many Bible passages through the years, thus developing a stronger Biblical foundation.
All MFC members are greatly encouraged to read and study these books. This should especially be for leaders, fulltimers and mission volunteers.
Further, you are encouraged to give these books as gifts to your parish priests, nuns and lay Church leaders, on the occasion of their birthday, ordination anniversary or Christmas. Aside from being of use to them personally, these books can impress upon them our spirituality and then hopefully get them to engage with us even more. Priests and nuns need to be our partners in LCSC for parishes and dioceses.
Here are the books categorized as to Core Value.
