CFC Singles for Christ aims
to provide a Christian support environment for single men and women who are
as the crossroads of their state of life, choosing between marriage, a religious
vocation, or single blessedness.
Singles for Christ as a support
environment:
-
teaches the individual the
right values to build their future on;
-
surrounds the individual with
friends who are well-meaning and have a positive influence;
-
provides the individual with
opportunities to meet potential partners in life who believe in the same Christian
goals and values;
-
involves the individual in
service that prepares them for the responsibility of marriage and family life;
and,
-
helps those with a vocation
for the priesthood or religious life to discern their calling.
SFC uses a three-pronged evangelization
approach: Attraction, Retention and Transistion. Attraction establishes
creative ways of bringing single men and women to community. Retention
keeps members actively involved through community life expereince and innovative
formation. Transition involves the proper transition of youth to singles
and singles to couples.
Pastoral guidance is extended
to SFC members following CFC's vast network of households (a cell group of 10
to 12 members) led by a household head. Further, unit heads lead household heads,
chapter heads lead unit heads and cluster heads lead chapter heads. Over-all
direction is provided by a national council.
