We are called to be the People of God, a spiritual people, with our gazes fixed on heaven where Christ sits at the Father's right hand and from where he will come in glory to judge the living and the dead. In our lives – in prayer, in our relationships, in our workplaces, and in our communities – do we reflect the truths and the values of our faith? This requires spiritual awakening. We have a responsibility to form ourselves.

Within the CMf D community, monthly faith formation and quarterly retreats are ways we open ourselves to formation and development in our faith and spiritual lives, to be touched by the Lord over and over again and to be always alert to God’s presence in our lives.

It is our hope that through these formations and our journey to perfect our love for Him, we will formed by the Spirit into a holy people before God our Father.
