CFM Today
The Christian Family Movement is a concrete expression of the family as “domestic church” in which members live their faith actively. CFM continues to reach out in action to inspire families to follow Christ and live their faith joyfully and generously.
CFM is listed in the U.S. Catholic Bishops’ Directory of Lay Movements, Organizations, and Professional Associations, and we maintain a cordial and productive relationship with the staff of the Secretariat of the U.S. Bishops’ Committee on Laity, Marriage, Family Life and Youth.
Many expressions of CFM are active in many countries worldwide, all of which cooperate as the International Confederation of Christian Family Movements, ICCFM. In the United States, CFM has several movements besides CFM-USA. There are two Spanish-speaking movements in the USA: MFC – Movimiento Familiar Cristiano Catolico-USA, which has more than 7,000 member families; MFC-Los Angeles with members in more than 20 parishes. Like CFM-USA, the MFC movements use the Observe, Judge, Act Method. See current international CFM news at www.iccfm.org
