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.
So far, we have discussed 5 books. 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.
WITNESSES TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH
(Related to CFC but with spiritual principles relevant to MFC)
Today we are at the threshold of the third millennium. And the people of God face a momentous challenge.
It has been 2,000 years of Christianity, but the commission of the Lord Jesus Christ to bring the gospel to the whole world has not been accomplished. In fact, the Church itself is being buffeted by dark winds and sinister forces, both from without and within. Spiritual warfare continues to rage in the heavens and on earth. At stake are the billions of souls on the face of the earth.
In June of 1981, God raised up a new army to participate in the war. God raised up a movement to work for global evangelization and renewal. That movement is Couples for Christ. Now, 17 years later, Couples for Christ has made and continues to make a tremendous impact throughout the world.
But all is not well.
Now, towards the end of the second millennium and at the threshold of the third, Couples for Christ has come to a crossroad. Its future usefulness to God and his work is threatened. The dangers are very real, but the opportunities also continue to be tremendous and exciting.
