Talk 1 – CFC: A Missionary Community by Bro. Joe Yamamoto
CFC Chairman Joe Tale giving his welcome remarks
Presently CFC is in 114 Countries – Bro. Joe Yamamoto
”In a bigger sense, the missionary spirit should be encapsulized in a very simple lesson—our particular calling as CFC are the following, to go as you evangelize and evangelize as you go” – Bro. Joe Yamamoto
Evangelize as you Go — Realizing this brings you to a bigger perspective, a wider opportunity.
”Exercising leadership by influencing people”
three principles in the mission
#1 Principle of Unity
#2 Principle of Integration
#3 Principle of Subsidiarity
”When God calls, as we respond to the call, that is the time for God to be able to use us”
”The going is not going to be easy – He will give us the mission to go to the heart break post or heart break assignment”
“When God affirms the work, then you can say that God is annointing CFC.”
We are blessed to have formed:
1. formed mission teams
2. raised mission voulnteers
3. sent hundreds of trained fulltime pastoral mission workers
Missionary sending and Missionary receiving:
“The one receiving must also prepare — to imbibe, replicate and share — in the end, the receiving area becomes the sending area.”
Our Response to the Anointing of the Holy Spirit
1. As missionaries, we have to evaluate ourselves. Are we still continuing to conquer territories of the Lord? — have we become comfortable of doing what is routinary?
” CFC leadership: The higher you go, the more people you must serve”
Do we still have our own weaknesses? Have we allowed the Lord to conquer us? – Only then can we set out to conquer territories for the Lord
“This is not for the fainthearted”
2. As a community, are we still forming mission teams to be fielded to mission areas?
3. We now journey from Pearl to Gold and we need to train our young to take on the work that God has started in us.
Talk 2: CFC: Mission Ready by Bro. Roquel Ponte, CFC International Missions Director
Like Abraham, when God called – he immediately said: READY! Gen. 22: 1
Elements of our readiness
1. Attentiveness to God’s Presence
”To be mission ready is to always fix our gaze on the world, so that we respond according to His leading”
2. Fulfilling ourRole in God’s plan
3. Focusing on God’s will allows us to grow in holiness
if our mind, our heart, our will becomes conformed to the heart, will, and mind of Christ – then we are able to answer the call ” I am ready because CHRIST himself has made me ready” Gal. 2:20 – It is no longer I who lives but Christ living in me”
4. Not always SUCCESSFUL but always FAITHFUL
”trustingly laying everything in the hands of the Lord”
”The faithfulness that God requires for us is NOT OPTIONAL it is dependent on the call that God has given us. ”
Success or failure depends on the Lord.
Establishing and Strengthening our Mission Centers
1. Mission Phases: 3 E’s (Establishment, Enrichment, Empowerment)
2. Establish and Strengthen Regional Mission Centers
3. One-Army: One community

Building up the Missionary Army (ACTS)

- to be armed is to be ultimately dependent on our God; to be able to proclaim the Word of God
C – Committed (living out the CFC Covenant)
T – Trained (Growing in Christian Maturity)
to be trained is to be intense in our own identity as Christian Catholics; intensely Eucharistic so that the living Christ we receive on Sunday is the living Christ is shared to everyone
