Equipes Notre-Dame (Teams)

About Teams How Teams started Priests and Religious Welcome

Teams Icon of The Holy Family
Teams is for Christian married couples who wish to assist each other to develop their married spirituality and relationship. Equipes Notre-Dame, known in GB as "Teams" was started in France in the 1940’s and has flourished so much that there are now 10,000 teams across the world with over 100 in Britain.


Teams has a specific and direct mission: to help couples, themselves, to live fully their sacrament of marriage. They do this with the support of a team using the Teams method. The founder, Fr Henri Caffarel, gave this "method" including monthly 'Team meetings' and a small number of 'endeavours' for couples.

 

The principle is to follow the new commandment which Christ, himself, gave us, namely Love: “You must Love the Lord your God with all your Heart, with all your Soul and with all your Mind… You must Love your Neighbour as Yourself.” Matthew 22: 36-40

 

Teams has a missionary objective: Teams couples proclaim to the world, by word and by the witness of their life, the values of Christian marriage.
