From Our Founder

I also agree that the laity generally are still too passive (that is, when they’re not too aggressively active!). That is really one of the basic reasons for the existence of CUF: to be a little alarm clock to wake people up, and then a center around which they can rally, and act in the way befitting members of Christ’s true Church. . . . The situation keeps changing, and it’s important that the laity try to act under some kind of coordination, which only an organization like CUF can provide.
