Christianity is the most popular religion in the United States,
with around 73% of asked Americans identifying themselves as Christian in 2012.
This is down from 86% in 1990, and slightly lower than 78.6% in 2001. About 62%
of those questioned claim to be members of a church congregation. In the mid-1990s
the United States had the largest Christian population on earth, with 224
million Christians.
Christianity was introduced to the Americas as it was first
colonized by Europeans beginning in the 16th and 17th centuries. Today most
Christian churches are Mainline Protestant, Evangelical, or Roman Catholic.
Immigration further increased Christian numbers.
One of the many Christian groups across America is Catholic
Men’s Fellowship of California is a ministry for today’s Catholic man. It helps
to establish new parish men’s faith groups, and it serves existing men’s
groups. CMF sponsors conferences, retreats, leadership days and other events
throughout the state that are especially for men. It provides resources and
assistance to parish men’s groups. CMF is not a fraternal, service or a social
organization; it is a lay apostolate responding to the call for a new evangelization
to enrich each Catholic man in his journey of faith. Their purpose is to
encourage men to become daily followers of Christ. To also help men renew their
minds and transform their lives and hearts. They have seven principles that they live by claim that every mans life can be and should be lived accourdiung too.
This group is different to normal Catholic group as they only look at the issues that males have in society and claim that man was first created by God - implying that man should take priority in having their lifes sorted.
