Couples for Christ (CFC) traces its origin to ], Philippines. It was established in 1981 by the charismatic community Ang Ligaya ng Panginoon (LNP; ] for "The Joy of the Lord") as its outreach to evangelize married couples. Couples for Christ (CFC) was established in 1981 by the charismatic community Ang Ligaya ng Panginoon (LNP; ] for "The Joy of the Lord") in ]. Its target groups were primarily married couples, inviting prospective couples to a private home for a series of weekly ] discussions.


Since 1993, CFC had also started other demographic-specific groups, including "Kids for Christ," "Youth for Christ," "Singles for Christ," "Handmaids of the Lord" and "Servants of the Lord."
The approach and strategy were to invite prospective couples to a private home and bring them to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ through a series of weekly informal discussions of the gospel in a social environment.


⚫ In 1996, CFC was approved by the ] as a National Private Association of Lay Faithful and recognized in 2000 by the ] as a private ] of ].
Beginning with the first 16 couples who joined the weekly gathering, CFC became a Christian family life renewal program 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.


⚫ CFC is present in dioceses across all 81 ] and 163 countries.

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 couple renewal was essential, it would be incomplete without family restoration.

Since 1993, CFC established the family ministries, namely:
* Kids for Christ
* Youth for Christ
* Singles for Christ
* Handmaids of the Lord
* Servants of the Lord

==Divisions==

Over the course of CFC's existence, there has been some restructuring and changes of leadership, and occasionally, divisions. Despite these, the members at large are mostly unaffected, and the respective communities continue to flourish.

===CFC and FFL===

In 1993, a group led by Francisco Padilla{{Citation needed|date=July 2011}}, one of the original members recruited by LNP in 1981, severed CFC's ties from LNP citing differences in evangelization approaches. Padilla was CFC's Executive Director until 2007.

In August 2007, the same group of leaders{{Citation needed|date=July 2011}} announced the creation of a separate group known as ] (CFC-FFL). This development, particularly since it was a direct offshoot of the bi-annual CFC elections that saw Frank Padilla and his group defeated{{Citation needed|date=July 2011}}, caused a division of membership within CFC{{Citation needed|date=July 2011}}, as some of its membership migrated to Foundation for Family and Life (FFL).
FFL applied and was granted approval by SEC to use a defunct CFC foundation created in the 1980s, the Couples for Christ Foundation, Inc. The group continues to use the name, despite a Vatican admonition that "no other group may use Couples for Christ" in their name other than Couples For Christ Global Mission's Foundation, Inc.

CFC leaders have stated that they are open to reconciliation with FFL, but do not expect a quick resolution, particularly since Padilla, current FFL Servant-General, continues to insist that only FFL is recognized by the Vatican. He bases this assertion on a statement issued by one official of the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines who stated that “in the dioceses in the Philippines there can be two groups of the CFC provided again the bishop of the place will permit. Abroad, FFL may not use CFC in their names." The Vatican has not revoked the recognition given to CFC, evidence cited by CFC that indeed it is the Vatican-recognized CFC.

Padilla's claim to be the founder of CFC{{Citation needed|date=July 2011}}, which is supported by FFL, is questioned by CFC. CFC's publication Origins of Couples for Christ directly responds to this claim by including the point of view of Vic Gutierrez, a former LNP leader who was responsible for the conceptualization of CFC in 1981.

Although FFL has received support from some Philippine and foreign dioceses, CFC still retains its recognition as a Catholic ministry nationally in the Philippines and internationally. Many bishops have also declared recognition of CFC in their dioceses, including John J. Myers, Archbishop of Newark.
