The Neocatechumenal Way

The Neocatechumenal Way, a fruit of the Second Vatican Council, is a charism that the Holy Spirit has given to the Church as a way of Christian initiation or re-initiation. It is an instrument, which promotes a new and vigorous evangelisation. For more than forty years, it has been favouring a gradual but radical rediscovery of the riches of baptism.

The NCWay community was founded in 2001. We have 45 members ranging from 18 to 76 years old. Our young adults are from the St Bernadette community, the first in Singapore.

What we do:
• We seek to form a Christian community like the Holy Family of Nazareth; to live in humility, simplicity and praise, where the other is Christ
• We are in the stage of Initiation to Prayer where we are required to pray the Morning Lauds, from the Divine Office, daily
• Annually, we celebrate Easter with the Community with an overnight vigil to welcome the Risen Lord

WHERE AND HOW DID CFC BEGIN?

CFC began in 1981 in Manila, Philippines, when Ang Ligaya ng Panginoon (Joy in the Lord), a covenanted Christian charismatic community, realized that to effectively renew society, a conversion of both spouses, and consequently families, to Christ was necessary.

The method used consisted of bringing together a small group of prospective couples in a private home. There they were brought to a living relationship with Jesus Christ and to renewal in the power of the Holy Spirit through a series of weekly informal discussions of the gospel in a social environment.

Beginning from the first 16 couples who joined the weekly gathering, CFC became a Christian family life renewal which was later made available to parishes and groups of married couples who wished to live out their Christian life in an active supportive relationship with one another.

The growth of CFC stemmed from its heart for mission and evangelization and its commitment to sharing God’s love with others, beginning from the basic unit – the family.  It did not take long for CFC to realize that while a couple renewal was essential, it would be incomplete without family renewal.
