Core Values

Our Core Values describe who we are and what we are called to do in the world.


  1. Centered on Christ.
    In everything that we are and do, we look to Jesus, who is our Savior and Lord. Jesus is our model in our obedience to the Father, in our faithfulness to His call, and to total submission to His divine will. And as He who called us is holy, we ourselves will strive for holiness of life (1 Pt 1:15-16), and look to exhibiting the fruit of the Spirit in our day-to-day lives (Gal 5:22-23). 
  2. Evangelistic and missionary.
    We are called to proclaim the good news of Jesus to the whole world (Mk 16:15). We are his witnesses (Lk 24:48). Every MFC member is an evangelizer, in the normal day-to-day environments of our lives. We look to doing mission beyond our own environments to the very ends of the earth. 
  3. Focused on the family.
    Our life and mission are founded on strong families in Christ. We recognize that the future of humanity passes by way of the family. We defend and strengthen Christian marriage, we raise our children to be the next generation of God’s people, we establish our homes as pieces of Kingdom ground. In our defense of the family, we are called to strong advocacy and defense of the culture of life. 
  4. Being a community.
    We are part of the larger family of MFC, a global family of many different nationalities and cultures but all sharing brotherhood and sisterhood in Christ. We desire to move forward together in our life in the Lord, providing love, affirmation, friendship, support, and healing. We are committed to the good of our brethren, always living the truth in love (Eph 4:15). 
  5. Living a preferential option for the poor.
    We recognize Jesus’ mission to bring glad tidings to the poor (Lk 4:18). We look to both the spiritual and material upliftment of the least among our brethren. In doing so, we will be in solidarity with the poor by striving to live a simple lifestyle, to share our resources, and to fight for social justice in the world.
  6. Exercising servant leadership.
    We are privileged to serve God and His people, both in and out of MFC. We serve with the mind and heart of Jesus, who came to serve and not to be served (Mt 20:28). Leaders are to serve with humility, self-sacrifice, and submission to the Chief Shepherd, to whom we will render an account (Hb 13:17). He who wishes to be great shall be the least of all (Mt 20:26-27). 
  7. Being a servant to the Church.
    We in MFC are an integral part of the Catholic Church. We are submitted to our bishops and to the pope. Our life, formation, and service will conform to Catholic values and ideals. We make ourselves available to be of service in the parishes and dioceses, especially in the areas of family and life. We look to Mary, the mother of the Church, as our inspiration and help.

Rationale Behind the New Name and the New Logo

MFC Logo

Missionary

Missionary

Our new logo has several elements that signify the reality of the name Missionary Families of Christ.

But first, note that the new logo is very similar to the old logo. This is to emphasize continuity, that our history indeed started with Couples for Christ (CFC) in 1981. The Lord has brought us through different stages up to this point today, where now the fullness of who we are and what we are called to do is clear.

Missionary

Missionary

Missionary

The Holy Spirit is depicted as a dove, which came down on Jesus at His baptism (Mt 3:16), starting Him off on His earthly mission. In turn, Jesus imparts the Holy Spirit to His disciples, empowering them to be His witnesses to the ends of the earth (Acts 1:8).


The Holy Spirit is the agent of evangelization. The Holy Spirit has called the Church to the New Evangelization. MFC recognizes that our Church is a missionary church, and is committed to helping her attain her destiny. We do this mainly through the work of the Live Christ Share Christ (LCSC) mission.

Families

Missionary

Families

We are families empowered by the Holy Spirit to help renew the face of the earth. We are committed to renew the family and to defend life. We are among those to be sent out on a mission.


We are families that first of all belong to Christ. The outstretched arms of Christ and the slightly inward-bent hands signify both the embrace of Jesus upon the family and also the presenting of the family to the world, being sent forth to do mission.


It s a faceless family. You become the faces of the Christian family. The family is garbed in blue, which is the color of Mama Mary. As Missionary Families of Christ, we are part of the army of Mary.

Christ

Christ

Families

Christ is of course at the very center of our logo. Our primary Core Value is being Centered on Christ. He is the be-all and end-all. We belong to Him. We are His servants. We are in His protective embrace. We are nothing without Him.


The gold ring or halo is a sacred diadem. "The plate of the sacred diadem was made of pure gold and inscribed, as on a seal engraving: Sacred to the Lord." (Ex 39:30).


It, first of all, represents a crown of royalty, as Jesus is the King of kings. Further, it signifies holiness, being set apart. Jesus is "the Holy One of God."   (Jn 6:69)

Christ

We too are called to holiness. We are to be transformed in Christ. We are called to be like Christ, to be another Christ. We are called to Christian perfection.


We are to "put on the new man, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness." (Eph 4:24). And so we have the faceless Christ. The challenge to us is to be that Christ, to be holy, to be priest, prophet, and king, to love and care for our family, and to be sent forth to do God's work.

FAQ

Why is such a ministry necessary?

How does a family or member of a family become a member of MFC?

Why is such a ministry necessary?

     

It is God's plan that the family is the basic unit of society, such that the condition of families determines the condition of society. 

However, there are many forces in the world today that would, wittingly or unwittingly, destroy the very foundation of the family. 

MFC wants to bring Good News to those who are in need and struggling to be truly Christian families in the modern world.

Those who want to become members of MFC will attend the Christian Life Seminar. Also, another option is to attend as guests in a prayer meeting conducted in the nearest area of residence. From these initial household meetings and fellowships, couples are encouraged to attend spiritual talks to be given by priests and by brethren through Christian Life Seminar (CLS).
Please don't miss this opportunity of knowing more about our Lord through our family, our friends, and our neighbors.

How does MFC intend to work for Catholic Christian family renewal?

MFC carries out its mission focused on three objectives: 

A. Individual Renewal. Before one can even consider the whole family, the husband and wife first need to renew their commitment to God. MFC takes the basic message of Christianity and proclaims it anew so that those who hear it can make a renewed commitment to God in a way that will allow them to receive a fuller experience of the work of the Holy Spirit in their lives. 

B. Family Renewal. As couples renew their commitment to God, they also renew their commitment to one another and to their Christian Family Life. Gradually, the new life that they find in the Lord filters down to all their family relationships.
C. Church Renewal. As individual families are renewed, they form a network of equally committed Christian Families who not only support one another but also strengthen the Church of which they are members.

What benefits can a parish derive in having MFC?

     

Families are renewed and strengthened in their Christian lives. Strong couples make for strong families who in turn become available to serve Catholic parishes. MFC members integrate themselves into the parish performing as Eucharistic ministers, Knights of Columbus, Legionaries of Mary, or for that matter just being available to the parish priest for any volunteer service he may deem important and needed to enhance parish life. MFC also has catechism programs for the different members of the family: MFC Kids for 4-11 yrs old; MFC Youth for middle and high schoolers; MFC Campus-Based for college students;  MFC Singles for young men and women of 18-40 yrs old; MFC Handmaids for the widow, mature single women, divorced and single mothers; and MFC Servants (widowers and mature single men, divorced men and single fathers).
