Goals
The Christian Family Movement website has 6 recorded goals for their members to strive to accomplish. The first goal is to develop a consciousness (both a family and a social consciousness) based on Christian principles and examples. The second goal is to develop responsible, concerned and happy families that are part of a supportive and affirming network of families within every community who will individually and collectively reach out to others in need. The third goal is to offer opportunities for families to grow in their personal relationships with one another as well as with their friends, neighbors and co-workers. The fourth goal is to develop a caring society that not only recognizes, but actively supports family life. The fifth goal is to initiate and encourage research that impacts on the actual needs of families. The sixth goal is to continue to foster the international spirit of the Christian Family Movement.

Famous quotes containing the word goals:
“Let us beware of saying there are laws in nature. There are only necessities: there is no one to command, no one to obey, no one to transgress. When you realize there are no goals or objectives, then you realize, too, that there is no chance: for only in a world of objectives does the word “chance” have any meaning.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Despicable means used to achieve laudable goals renders the goals themselves despicable.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
“We should stop looking to law to provide the final answer.... Law cannot save us from ourselves.... We have to go out and try to accomplish our goals and resolve disagreements by doing what we think is right. That energy and resourcefulness, not millions of legal cubicles, is what was great about America. Let judgment and personal conviction be important again.”
—Philip K. Howard, U.S. lawyer. The Death of Common Sense: How Law Is Suffocating America, pp. 186-87, Random House (1994)
