This simply means they are unsure about their hold on the CFC name and wanted to firm it up by changing the recognition to “CFCGMFI.” In proposing it, Joe, as chided by Cardinal Rylko, showed his civil (social, corporate) rather than spiritual thinking.<BR/><BR/>FYI: The IC was not asking permission to change the Vatican recognition form CFC to CFCGMFI. Rylko was refering to the draft of the ad that was submitted to the vatican, following the directives of march 11. The draft of the ad had the headings of the name CFCGMFI, this is our legal name. It was an unsolicited opinion. Rylko gave an opinion that CFC has been waiting for- in a long long time... which is to put an end to the squabble betwee ffl and cfc about the use of the name. Tis is a grace from God.<BR/>Now the vatican has spoken. And it is difficult to turn this to an origami, or subject in to a little folding here, a touch of snowpake there.

Help me. I am confused. FP's write ups are indeed deceiving"<BR/><BR/>Vatican has ruled that no other group can use the name Couples for Christ.<BR/><BR/>Explanation: CFC is registered in the SEC as CFCGMFInc. that is the legal name. That is what the cardinal was pointing out when he said-<BR/>1st Regarding the name of the association you can not change it from "Couples for Christ" to "Couples for Christ Global Mission Foundation Inc".<BR/>Comment:<BR/>Please bear in mind that this was part of an ongoing communication between Vatican and the IC.<BR/><BR/>Background:<BR/>the april 3 letter of rylko was in response to what the IC sent him.<BR/>IC sent rylko a copy of what the ad would say. The ad was a directive of rylko, which was contained in the march 11 letter.<BR/><BR/>In that letter, IC was advised to come out with an ad to apologize for the scandal that could have been provoked by the partnership of CFC with companies producing contraceptives.<BR/><BR/>This was also an outcome of the visit of Joe Tale to the Vatican in early March. JT and RP went to seek advice on the CFC crisis.<BR/><BR/>The april 3 letter further mentioned how rylko preferred these words to be used<BR/>4th... " We sincerely apologize for any scandal that "Couples for Christ"...etc<BR/><BR/>The ad that was put out in the philstar did not use the words that rylko mentioned in the letter. IC had its reasons why and they also wrote rylko about it. Rylko was also given a copy of the actual ad. And as far as Vatican is concerned the ad was acceptable. It was supposed to be a directive that CFC followed. That was a done deal. IC was just waiting for the next directive from Vatican if there were other things that needed to be done.<BR/><BR/>The letter from the easter group said:<BR/><BR/>(4) Since the IC refuses to follow the Vatican, and since CFC-GK still has these partnerships with pharmaceuticals with contraceptives, CFC is still not in “good standing” with the Vatican.<BR/> <BR/>That is the opinion of Frank, but the Vatican has not made such pronouncements. CFC followed the directives of Vatican and the partnership has already been cancelled. There is no more partnership between GK and any company producing contraceptives. I repeat the partnership was already terminated, and Vatican knows this. Another lie from Frank.<BR/><BR/>They said:<BR/>(5) Once again there is deception. They did not print the full letter, because once again, just like the March 11 letter of Cardinal Rylko to Joe Tale, it is not favorable to them. They took one seemingly favorable line and hid the rest of the text which were all unfavorable.<BR/><BR/>Comment: The full letter was not published because this letter is part of a private continuing communique between IC and Vatican. You have to have permission to print it in full. The public do not know what the whole story is, publishing the letter in its entirety will just bring more confusion not just among CFC members but the catholic faithful at large. Makakasama na sa simbahan yan. For what? <BR/>But frank calls it, suspect. Another deception. <BR/><BR/>May 1&2 ad-<BR/>The purpose of the ad is for the public and the clergy to know that there is only one Couples for Christ and any other group that is using its name is not permitted by Vatican. CFCFFL is one such group. It also mentions that the reason why no other group can use the name Couples For Christ is to prevent confusion. Which is precisely what is happening and will continue to happen if FFL will insist on using the name of CFC.<BR/><BR/>This reminds me of what my parents would tell me when I would listen to them talk... "Anak, umalis ka dito, dun ka muna sa labas. huwag ka makisali kasi usapang pang matanda ito!"<BR/><BR/>So to Frank and FFL- stay out of this, its none of your business.To insist on using CFC as an appendage will definitely be tantamount to disobedience!<BR/><BR/>Question: <BR/>Can Frank follow the orders of a Cardinal? Or does he prefer bishops only? Or can he just lead, but can not follow?<BR/><BR/>Recommendations:<BR/>Who can talk to Frank and tell him to stop all these? Please look for that person...<BR/><BR/>To Frank:<BR/>Enough already! YOu have caused scandal in the CFC community, you have caused scandal in the Philippine scene, you have caused scandal to the Catholic faith, today you have included Vatican, whose name has been dragged to this controversy.<BR/><BR/>TAMA NA SOBRAAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6165175175127877464.post-79022156100610293722008-05-03T12:10:00.000+08:002008-05-03T12:10:00.000+08:00Devil's Characteristics1.

There was something in it that just convicted me.I felt the stirrings of the Holy Spirit in Frank’s entire letter it was as if… somewhere between each sentence, there was one person then another, then another…<BR/>I just felt like someone wants to speak but another got hold of the pen..<BR/><BR/>I found it disconcerting, that the letter kept referring to the enemy. I asked myself, who is the enemy? <BR/><BR/>WHO IS THE ENEMY? <BR/><BR/>Is Frank Padilla the enemy? No he is not, he says it is the devil. <BR/><BR/>Who is the devil?<BR/><BR/>From FAPs previous writings, as far back as the split of 1993 from Ligaya, telltale signs were there. 1) (half truths, twisting facts, deceit) <BR/><BR/>2) He often claims he knows the mind of God- with such words like-<BR/> “God intends”' 'God intents'<BR/>Who knows how the Lord thinks, doesn’t scripture say- <BR/>“For my thoughts are not your thoughts. Nor are your ways my ways.” Isaiah 55:8<BR/><BR/>3) Was Frank turning- diabolic? Even then?<BR/><BR/>4) After reading origins 1&2; I realized, that, during Ligaya days, the manner by which the split of 1993 was designed and crafted by Frank was deceitful.<BR/><BR/>It was already there, the enemy within in 1993 and the enemy within today 2008. Is this a case of demon possession?<BR/><BR/>I shudder at the thought, that in him, ‘they’ move. I am really shocked by this idea. But look what have we here in our midst today? Is this the fruit of the Holy Spirit or the fruit of another spirit?<BR/><BR/>Today he double speaks. Look where he has brought us, from personal issues, from an internal conflict, to eventually scandalizing the Catholic faithful, to the bishops and now the Vatican! <BR/><BR/>When he speaks, I am troubled.<BR/>When I read his letters they are half truths. <BR/><BR/>Who speaks half truths? <BR/>The devil with a forked tongue. It is this enemy with his long tail that roams the CFC community today.<BR/><BR/>Let us pray for the deliverance of CFC from the clutches of the devil.<BR/><BR/>This particular letter of Frank shows the clash of evil and good. Goodness lies in the heart of every man, but the devil who is the adversary, whose battle ground is in the mind of man, uses the goodness in man's heart to perfect its plan.<BR/><BR/>Frank says it; over and over, that he is the most maligned and if it were just him, he would have just stayed in the background- and let go and let GOD!<BR/><BR/>Good versus Evil, the enemy within.<BR/><BR/>Look at what I did with the letter; read it, I canceled out the word enemy. It is the same letter just a very minor cahnge.I believe there is a message here for me, for you for us. READ THIS WITH A PRAYER THAT THE HOLY SPIRIT MAY ENLIGHTEN US; READ IT SLOW...<BR/><BR/>AN OPEN LETTER TO CFC WORLDWIDE<BR/> <BR/>April 30, 2008<BR/> <BR/>My dear brethren,<BR/> <BR/>Grace and peace from our Lord Jesus Christ!<BR/> <BR/>God’s action in our lives<BR/> <BR/>We all allowed Frank Padilla (the devil, our common enemy) to enter our gates, with the result that CFC plunged into deep crisis and then split.<BR/> <BR/>But given that bringing us to Lamentations did not have the desired result, since there were those with hardened hearts who would not repent and turn away from errors, God then allowed the split to happen. If we had not split, CFC would soon have disintegrated, as Frank Padilla wanted to destroy us all. With the split, the tensions between the social and the spiritual dimensions of our work were eliminated. We in CFC, the CFC true to its charism, moved on, with great joy and starting to experience the return of God’s anointing.<BR/> <BR/>Frank Padilla, thinking he had succeeded in seriously weakening CFC with the split, now saw God bringing victory out of seeming defeat. He now saw the emergence of a restored CFC, once again totally focused on the charism given it. Once again God’s work of family renewal and evangelization could proceed in the power of His Spirit. And once again Frank Padilla raged.<BR/> <BR/>Since many bishops recognized CFC, and since the Holy See, through the Pontifical Council for the Laity, has recognized the errors committed by CFC, so now it is the hierarchical Church herself that is under attack.<BR/> <BR/>This is where we see that indeed we are into more intense spiritual warfare. The devil rages against the Church and her authentic work. The conflict is not just about us in CFC, but about the whole Church.<BR/> <BR/>Call to prayer<BR/> <BR/>What should we do?<BR/> <BR/>First, be not afraid. The gates of hell will not prevail against the Church.<BR/> <BR/>Second, rejoice in persecution for the sake of righteousness, for you are blessed (Mt 5:10-12). Such is God’s way of purifying us and moving us on to holiness.<BR/> <BR/>Third, do not retaliate in kind. Continue to love Frank Padilla (the only real enemy is the devil).<BR/> <BR/>Fourth, pray hard. Prayer is our lifeline to God, who is merciful, kind, just and loving. We are His children. He is committed to care for us. He knows our pains. He allows crosses into our lives. But He has a great plan for us, not for woe but for a future full of hope.<BR/> <BR/>Let us pray for God’s protective mantle on us all. Let us pray for our brethren who are in <BR/>FFL. They are our brethren and not our enemies. And let us pray for Mother Church, especially our bishops who guide and pastor us.<BR/> <BR/>I ask every member of CFC, in addition to your regular daily prayer and Bible reading, to look to frequent participation in the Eucharist (daily if you can), to regular family prayer of the rosary (daily if you can), and to Eucharistic adoration (if you are able). The different CFC-FFL groupings (households, chapters, districts, etc.) should look to communal prayer and intercession. The intercessory groups should intensify their prayers. Let us also pray the chaplet of the Divine Mercy.<BR/> <BR/>I also call on fasting twice a week. We, and the whole Church, are into intense spiritual warfare. Certain demons “can only come out through prayer (and through fasting)” (Mk 9:29). We are on spiritual war footing. Be fit for the fight.<BR/> <BR/>Finally, keep your hearts pure and humble. “‘God opposes the proud but bestows favor on the humble.’ So humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time. Cast all your worries upon him because he cares for you.” (1 Pt 5:5-7).<BR/> <BR/>Rejoice in the Lord<BR/> <BR/>It is appropriate that we in CFC have taken on the theme of love for this year. God loves us, God has a great plan for us, God will never abandon us, God turns our pains and crosses into sanctification and holiness. And God is already victorious over Frank Padilla. What more could we ask for?<BR/> <BR/>I leave you with Peter’s wise words.<BR/> <BR/>“Now who is going to harm you if you are enthusiastic for what is good? But even if you should suffer because of righteousness, blessed are you. Do not be afraid or terrified with fear of them, but sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts. Always be ready to give an explanation to anyone who asks you for a reason for your hope, but do it with gentleness and reverence, keeping your conscience clear, so that, when you are maligned, those who defame your good conduct in Christ may themselves be put to shame. For it is better to suffer for doing good, if that be the will of God, than for doing evil.”<BR/> (1 Pt 3:13-17) <BR/> <BR/>Mama Mary, please pray for us and keep us in your loving embrace always.<BR/> <BR/>God bless us all.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6165175175127877464.post-10206770663635379372008-05-03T12:00:00.000+08:002008-05-03T12:00:00.000+08:00That good man Frank can no longer find an excuse a...That good man Frank can no longer find an excuse about his ways.<BR/><BR/>Theres always a million words he could use to convince you but once one tries to read what's in his heart you could see that all you could do for him is pray.<BR/><BR/>Frank, give it up for Gerry's Xavy's & Vania's sake!<BR/><BR/>And for the future of your grandchildren too!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6165175175127877464.post-40190591245525702262008-05-03T11:41:00.000+08:002008-05-03T11:41:00.000+08:00CD, my dear, who is spinning? FFL or CFC? Wow, tal...CD, my dear, who is spinning? FFL or CFC? Wow, talaga naman po, kahit anong gawin yata ng IC ay kapit-patalim ka na. So that's why IC is hiding the letter, BECAUSE they did not follow the Cardinal in wording their apology! And now they are spinning his word!<BR/><BR/>Now, with regards to that CFC cannot be use by other association ad, did you notice that it is really an appeal to CBCP? Gosh, the cardinal knows that CFC-FFL is already recognized by a number of bishops in Phil and now IC (yeah can have it buong buo) is campaigning to reverse that, misrepresenting the Cardinal's words.<BR/><BR/>Ego, ego CD, you act like you know everything. Don't yout think that if the Cardinal really mean what your IC is trying to say, he will say FFL cannot use it or agree that it will be change to your (yes, sa inyo na) CFCGMFI or that IC will show the letter (yeah, not hide it) to CBCP and to the loyal members?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6165175175127877464.post-42408043410703829292008-05-03T10:51:00.000+08:002008-05-03T10:51:00.000+08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Athrun Atreideshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07060514202042711130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6165175175127877464.post-14332902206262667402008-05-03T10:35:00.000+08:002008-05-03T10:35:00.000+08:00So this means that they can no longer use CFC-FFL?...So this means that they can no longer use CFC-FFL?
