The Couple’s Mission
Teams of Our Lady
“The Christian home is the small Church community that St John Chrysostom spoke of… Were all other places of worship to be closed, disused, destroyed, as in certain regions of the world, the Christian family would remain God’s home among men.”
Henri Caffarel, “Teams of Our Lady Facing Atheism”, Rome, 1970
Four Couples at the Origin of the Teams of Our Lady
“All of them had no trouble thinking that their vocation was holiness, holiness appearing to them as the blossoming of love. The fulfilment of conjugal love and the love of Christ. And then, the reflection immediately led them to discover in a completely new way the sacrament of marriage, not simply as a formality but as a source of prodigious grace.”
Spouses are called to be Witnesses of Love
“God, the friend of men, sends out his servants on a mission when they have rebuilt their strength by means of mutual love, prayer and rest. So, it is not surprising that in the midst of men, Christian spouses are witnesses of the living God.”
The Couple fulfills this Mission notably through Hospitality
“This evangelizing vocation is inscribed in the constitution of your couple through the sacrament of marriage. Founded by God himself, your conjugal community is called to proclaim, in its own way, the fruitful, liberating, and transforming love of God.”
