Almighty Father, in these dark times when evil is rampant throughout the world, you have called us, chosen us, and appointed us to rise in defense of your work. We are your missionary families, commissioned to defend faith, family and life.
Lord Jesus, you are the Rock upon which our families, our community and our Church are founded. With you as cornerstone, help us to be built as living stones into a spiritual house, holy and acceptable. Build this house to withstand the floods and winds of adversity that assault us each day.
Holy Spirit, send us forth as your holy warriors, with clarity of vision and zeal for mission. Empower us in the proclamation of the gospel of salvation in Jesus, and help us in defending our Church against the forces that seek to weaken her.
Mama Mary, teach us the way of kindness and mercy, unite us as your beloved children, and keep us in your loving embrace always.
Amen.

The Life and Culture of MFC Singles
Worship
We nurture our personal relationship with the Lord through personal prayer time and charismatic worship as a community.
Discipleship
We are all called to discipleship in accordance to how God calls each one uniquely. In MFC Singles, opportunities for service are provided such as giving talks, leading a household, serving in the parish, ministering in the prisons, teaching catechism to children as well as other ways to lead to the restoration of life as a whole.
Ministry
Our spiritual formation is continuous through our regular teachings and activities about God's promises and plan, Scripture as well as our veneration to our Blessed Virgin Mary as our intercessor.
We also have an annual Canada Singles Congress wherein MFC Single members from all over the Canada gather in one place and be nourished by God's message to the community for the year.
Evangelism
We are witnesses of God's love and faithfulness by the way we live our lives. We hope that others will come to know God's saving power and, through our example, be led to know and love Him more.
As an evangelistic community, we also go on mission trips to spread God's message of love and hope to other places within and outside of the country.
Fellowship
We relate with each other in brotherhood and sisterhood. After the CLS, the Singles are divided into household (cell) groups composed of 5-7 members each. This household meets at least twice a month in prayer, personal sharing and sometimes just having fun together.
MFC Singles Entry Point
The Singles candidate attends a 6-week Christian Life Seminar (CLS) after which they receive support through regular Household (cell group) Meetings, Prayer Assemblies and fellowship with other brothers and sisters.
Three months later, the candidate will go through the Covenant Recollection for an even deeper growth in their relationship with God and for a better understanding of their commitment to God as a community. At this point, the Singles candidate will decide whether he or she desires to enter into this covenant to be a community member of MFC Singles.
