CADA an OFFICIAL AFFILIATE COMMUNITY of SWORD of the SPIRIT

Congratulations Brothers & Sisters! CADA now reached its affiliate status of the Sword of the Spirit, a milestone worth celebrating! This marks a new era for CADA. God has been good and He remains faithful. Thanks for all your support and prayers throughout the years. Our gathering on June 26, 2009, which highlights the signing of documents between Jerry Munk and Pedro Esteva, was a success. Thanks to the music ministry, to all who shared, to all who prepared refreshments, to all our guests, Jerry & Jan Munk, John & Nancy Mckeone, Tom & Ellen Gryniewicz, Myriam Torres, Crissy's Parents & Rhoda's parents, and to all of you. May God continue to bless CADA as we embark this journey with the Sword of the Spirit, to become disciples in mission. Also, may all of us continue to live the call God gave us, to become a true ardent disciples in action.

Christ's Ardent Disciples in Action, or simply CADA, is a Christ-centered charismatic community whose members share a common desire to love and serve the Lord and who are committed to live a way of life that upholds the teachings of Christ.

CADA is a Michigan-based Christian community, composed mostly of young Filipinos-families, married couples, and single men and women. Our love for God and our strong friendships started it all, as our first prayer meeting took place on July 1996. Our activities include everything from prayer meetings, recollections, and Bible studies to picnics, sportsfests, and canoeing . It is fellowship and fun, faith and living the Fruits of the Holy Spirit. It is about getting to know Jesus in a personal way and sharing a life in Jesus with our family and friends. We strongly believe that being part of a Christian community plays a very important role in living out a rich life in Christ. So with this, we encourage everyone to involve themselves and be part of the body of Christ...who knows, that could just be us.

CADA is an affiliate community of the Sword of the Spirit which is an ecumenical body composed of more than 65 communities spread throughout 24 countries dedicated to serving Christ in the Christian churches of which its members are a part, and in our society through the support of covenant community life. As such we now share the call to be "a community of disciples in mission" with our brothers and sisters from SOS.
