Through the supervision of Brother Angelo Eraño V. Manalo, the Iglesia Ni Cristo (Church Of Christ) Christian Family Organizations (CFO) remains an efficient tool of the Church Administration in keeping the brethren’s faith strong and at the same time helping them in various aspects in their lives.

In this time of the pandemic, the multifarious activities launched by the CFO Office have helped the brethren cope with life’s many challenges as such activities gave families meaningful bonding moments that strengthened their hope for God’s promised blessings. Thus, husbands and wives remain God-fearing couples, the youth become well-prepared for their future, and children are guided with proper conduct.

Here is a glance at some of the various activities launched in the Church Of Christ for the members of the various Christian Family Organizations for the year 2021.
