Christian Family Movement

It is a lay movement which groups together Catholic families supported by the spiritual aid of bishops, priests, deacons and religious.

Objectives:

• To make the Hispanic families of the State of Massachusetts form people, to teach them in the faith, and to promote the integral development of the community and of the domestic church.
• It operates on the conjugal, familial, and communal scale, promoting family values.
• To offer opportunities for teamwork in the study of the themes and for an interchange of ideas among the members of the family
• To understand the importance of marriage and the family as a cell of society.

What are CFM's aims?
