What is the
Life and Culture of CFC-YFL?
Our culture is our
way of doing things in the ministry. Youth attending our activities,
member or non-member, will see these as the FACE of CFC-YFL.
1. Fun
It is a characteristic of the youth to seek activities that are
pleasurable and amusing. We in CFC-YFL provide just that kind of
environment in the spirit of Catholic enjoyment. We desire to
fulfill the need of the youth for merriment through activities that
promote not only spiritual but social growth as well.
2. Acceptance
A determinant to one’s active participation in a community is the
feeling of being welcomed. In CFC-YFL, we strive to create an
atmosphere of belongingness wherein everyone is given warm reception
regardless of race, gender, physical attributes, attitude… etc. We
believe that we are all brothers and sisters in Christ because by
one Spirit are we all baptized into one body and have been all made
to drink into one Spirit (1 Cor. 12:13). Therefore, each person
should be loved, just like Christ had loved, in spite of who he/she
is and was. (John 15:12)
3. Christ
Centered
The focal point in the existence of CFC-YFL is Christ. We look to
Jesus Christ as our model and guide. Therefore, in each endeavor and
activity in our community, we first and foremost seek that God will
be glorified. Every activity’s goal is for the participant to know
Christ and be like Him.
4. Excellence
Since in CFC-YFL we believe that all things should be done for the
glory of God (1 Peter 4:11), we do everything outstandingly in all
the aspects of our lives. We do everything to the best of our
abilities by dwelling in truth, honor, righteousness, purity,
loveliness and good reputation. (Philippians 4:8)
