Purpose of Via de Cristo

The heart and essence of the Via de Cristo is to bring Christians to a full awareness of what is meant by living the life of grace, adding new strength and vitality to their Christianity.   The purpose of the Via de Cristo is to develop in Christians a consciousness of their power and mission to become leaders in Christian renewal, and the desire to continue to live the life of grace, personally and together with their brothers and sisters in Christ.   The focus of Via de Cristo is not on the weekend itself, but on the local church and a simple method for living a strong Christian life in today’s world.
