Who We Are

Catholic Adult Fellowship’s Identity Statement

Catholic Adult Fellowship (CAF) is a group of Catholics who desire to grow in love, knowledge and service of Christ and His Church, with other adults.

Members are married and single adults, lay and religious. We realize the desire and need for Catholic community at every stage of an adult’s life.

CAF is a grass-roots fellowship made up of multiple chapters; led by lay Catholics; advised by religious; approved by a local parish, deanery or diocese; and guided by the Magisterium and Catechism of the Catholic Church.

As part of the “New Evangelization” of the Church proclaimed by Pope John Paul II, and being a Eucharistic people, CAF has as its goal: authentic Catholic adult faith renewal. CAF reaches out and is open to all Catholics — no matter where they are in their faith journey.

As a fellowship, we build personal relationships with each other, through which, we can encourage each other in our Catholic Christian spiritual growth. Members of the fellowship are personally responsible for making sure that CAF is always a safe place where women and men treat each other as brothers and sisters in Christ.

Catholic Adult Fellowship’s Vision Statement

Catholic Adult Fellowship’s vision is to become more Christ-like and more effective in the service of Christ’s Church. We hope to achieve authentic Catholic adult faith renewal as our goal, which is brought about by living the Four Foundational Disciplines (Study, Prayer, Fellowship and Service).
