SFC (Singles for Christ) FAQs

Who can become members of Singles for Christ?
Any single (ages 21-40*) can become a member of Singles for Christ. SFC is mainly a Catholic organization, but is open for membership to all Christians of other denominations. The single participants need not have any specific religious and/or spiritual background to become members.Singles for Christ draws its membership from all sectors of society - - young and old, rich and poor, etc. SFC transcends all cultural, economic, educational, social and other distinctions.* We have different ministries, so even if you're below or almost 21, you're still welcome.

How does a single become a member of Singles for Christ ?
Those who want to become members of Couples for Christ go through a seminar which is called a Christian Life Program (CLP). The CLP commences with an Orientation session, then goes through 12 talks. The talks are usually held in the afternoons or evenings and usually last about 2 1/2 hours per session.

What is the nature of the Christian Life Program ?
The CLP is an integrated course leading into a renewed understanding of God’s call to Christian singles. It is divided into 3 modules of 4 talks each. Most sessions consist of a talk, a group discussion, and some time for fellowship.The different topics discussed in the talks are as follows:
1. God’s Love
2. Who is Jesus Christ?
3. What it means to be a Christian
4. Repentance and Faith
5. The Christian Ideal: Loving God
6. Loving your Neighbor
7. The Christian Family
8. Life in the Holy Spirit
9. Receiving the Power of the Holy Spirit
10. Growing in the Spirit
11. The Life & Mission of the Couples for Christ/Singles for Christ
12. Transformation in Christ (and dedication)

Is there any cost involved?
There are no fees or monetary expenses required of participants to attend. The only investment required from them is their time and their openness.

What happens after the Christian Life Program?
After the CLP, those who finish are invited to join Singles for Christ. When they do, they are then made part of a small cell group called a Household. The household is composed of about 4 -8 singles who meet weekly for encouragement and mutual support in the Christian life, under the direction of a household leader.

What is the nature of this household ?
The purpose of the household group is to build an environment for the support of the Christian life of singles and to provide a means of encouraging and hastening spiritual growth. It promotes brotherhood and friendship. It helps people overcome obstacles to growth and maturity in their Christian life.The household meeting is held at the homes of the group members on a rotation basis. A typical meeting would involve some time for prayer, a time for sharing or discussion and finally some time for fellowship. It would normally last about 2 1/2 hours per meeting.

How about Christian formation?
Finishing the CLP is just the beginning of a long process of growth and transformation in Christ. As such, Singles for Christ provides a continuing program of formation which includes Catholic Christian teachings, recollections, and retreats.
