We are the voice of the family from a Catholic perspective in Europe. We cherish its beauty, its wealth and the dignity of each of its members.
Stronger families build a prosperous society!
1st June 2017
Audience of Pope Francis to FAFCE
“In Amoris Laetitia, I emphasized how, on the basis of the family, we can make the gift concrete through the beauty and the joy of mutual love. Seen in this light, your activity should help remind everyone that there is no better ally for the integral progress of society than to favour the presence of families in the social fabric. Today too, the family is the foundation of society and it remains the most suitable structure for ensuring for people the integral good necessary for their continuing development. I wanted to stress how the unity of all the members of the family, and the fraternal commitment of the family with society, are allies of the common good and of peace, also in Europe.”
