ONE VISION
Families in the Holy Spirit renewing the face of the earth


Moved by the Holy Spirit, one with the Catholic Church, blessed to witness to Christ’s love and service, Couples for Christ is a united global community of family evangelizers that sets the world on fire with the fullness of God’s transforming love.


The Couples for Christ (CFC) in Jerusalem began in 1997 with its first Christian Life Program (CLP) held at the Notre Dame Center in Jerusalem. This program attracted many members who became deeply involved in both liturgical and social activities under the Afro-Asian Program of the Notre Dame Center. CFC-Jerusalem has since become one of the vibrant and integral areas of CFC Israel.


The community's growth was particularly marked by the establishment of the Good Shepherd Filipino Catholic Community in 2000 in Agron Street, Jerusalem, which became a foundational pillar of the GSFCC. The CFC offers Christian family renewal programs aimed at helping parishes and groups foster strong, supportive Christian relationships.


Over the years, CFC-Jerusalem has continued to thrive, becoming an active ministry within the San Lorenzo Ruiz community. It is now part of Saint Martha Church of the Passionist in Bethany, playing a major role in the renewal of Christian family life and in the church.
