* Beliefs and Ideals

The family as the basic unit
of society is God’s plan
The condition of families determines
the condition of society as a whole
Strengthening family life is the best
for the moral regeneration of society

By working for the renewal of
individuals, families and the
Church on a global basis
By providing a strong support
environment for our members

loving hand in restoring the
Christian family back to His original
plan
