Christian Life Program (CLP) is an integrated course intended to lead the program participants into a renewed understanding of God's call to them as Christian couples. The CLP has two basic purposes: evangelism and spiritual renewal. To evangelize is to take the basic message of Christianity and to proclaim it anew so that those who hear it can make a renewed commitment to the Lord in a way which
will allow them to receive a fuller experience of the work of the Holy Spirit in their lives. Spiritual renewal works in three ways:
* For the individual, it brings a person into a stronger relationship with God by discovering and living more fully the power and gifts he or she received through the Holy Spirit.
* For the family, it brings married couples to a renewed commitment to Christian family Life and it starts to build up a community of committed Christian families.
* For the Church, it brings people within a particular parish to a fuller experience of life in the Spirit. Consequently it strengthens and revitalizes community life in the parish. What is the content of the CLP? The CLP runs for a total of 13 consecutive sessions usually held weekly, divided into an orientation session and then 3 modules of 4 sessions each.
