[0546] Christian Family Movement Records, 1946-1999, CFM

Location: University of Notre Dame Archives, 607 Hesburgh Library, Notre Dame, IN 46556

Description: Christian Family Movement was a national, and later international, movement of the specialized lay apostolate of the Catholic Church inspired by the social principles of papal encyclicals and related to the European Jocist movement founded by Canon Joseph Cardijn. Correspondence (1946-1969); files on CFM chaplains; correspondence, agenda, and minutes of the national coordinating committee (1949-1969); correspondence, minutes, and research material associated with the publication of the CFM monthly magazine Act, and copies of the magazine itself (1946-1971); newsletters of local CFM federations; programs, reports, financial records, evaluation forms and speeches; a series of files concerning crises of the CFM in the 1960s; surveys, dissertations, and articles on the CFM; files on interaction with related groups; books, scrapbooks, and tape recordings. The series on CFM Crises contains numerous letters protesting the favorable references to the UN and the Foreign Policy Association in the annual inquiry booklet for 1961 on the topic "international Life." The protest was inspired by an American Legion post in Georgia, which had persuaded the grand jury of their county to force the Foreign Policy Association's publications out of their school system due to the "subversive" nature of the organization. The "Crises" series also contains correspondence related to the attack on the international life inquiry program and the CFM leadership by the Cardinal Mindszenty Foundation, an ultra-right wing Catholic group. There are numerous press clippings from the early sixties on the American right-wing and a short article by Edward Gargan of Loyola University, Chicago, on "Radical Conservatism among United States Catholics." This series contains folders covering the civil rights movements, and the activities of right-wing extremists during the period 1960-1965. There are letters supporting and attacking CFM's support of both the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and the Pacem in Terris convocation sponsored by the Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions. There are numerous extremely bitter letters concerning these matters, and a number of relevant newspaper and magazine clippings.
