CFO Is a Life-affirming retreat for you and your family
 
CFO TEACHES YOU how to stretch and exercise your spiritual muscles, developing a stronger faith to become and live as God has planned for each of us.
IT IS OUR HOPE that from the first time you hear about CFO until you experience a retreat, you will see an organization that is devoted to Jesus Christ, pursuing the highest standards of excellence in both its events and interaction with you.
IT IS OUR HEART that you see through our example that we are living out, with a passion, our commitment to following God’s ways with a heart for you and your family.
