Christian Family Movement is for families of all ages and sizes. At a typical monthly meeting, parents gather in a large group for an opening prayer, introductions, announcements, and a gospel reading. The children are supervised as they watch a movie, play games with friends, or play in the nursery. Then the adults break into groups to review and discuss the monthly topic. The children then rejoin the adults for a brief family activity and light refreshments. Holy Family's Christian Family group meets regularly once each month, as well as optional social and outreach activities throughout the year.

Our ministry seeks to improve the quality of family life by providing a framework for families to support and affirm each other. The ministry is dedicated to promoting Christian attitudes, values, and actions in individuals as they interact with their families, friends, neighbors, co-workers, and within institutions affecting the family.
