The Federation of Catholic Family Associations in Europe (FAFCE) received the 2015 EU Family Values Award from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons) at a celebration held in Brussels on October 19.

The EU Family Values Award in Brussels recognizes individuals and organizations whose work and influence with the institutions of the European Union have a significant impact on family life within European societies.

Elder Patrick Kearon, President of the Europe Area of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, who presided at the event, said that FAFCE received the award “for its tireless work to make the family unit a priority in EU policy making.”
