15th CFC North American Conference (Eastern)
Family Conference
A young mother of a 3-month old baby girl from Canada becomes spiritually-recharged despite a 10-hour long-distance driving trip. An elderly couple feels young-at-heart, after spending a weekend adventure at a college campus. A broken-hearted teenager from California finds refuge despite an unsupportive parent. A family from Maryland with 3 young children gets inspired after seeing old friends.
Champaign-Urbana, IL. Almost 1800 brothers and sisters in Christ gathered at the University of Illinois, Champaign-Urbana campus to celebrate a milestone in the Couples for Christ North American history. For the very first time, CFC and its two family ministries: Kids for Christ and CFC-Youth, unite to commemorate its 15th anniversary.
God has once again proven that everything happens in His perfect timing, not ours. In late June, local CFC (Chicago area) worried about the seemingly poor registration numbers. God has blessed this conference abundantly with 836 CFC members, 651 youths, and 201 kids – along with a few HOLD members as participants and SFC members serving in the conference.
