Context Labels

This jargon is predominantly used among Christian groups, "La Fé" means "The Faith" in Spanish, from which the name is derived. A member outside of the Christian community might be able to use "LaFe" in reference to this organization without seeming odd or out of place, however, data seems to show that this phrase is most commonly used and known within this organization, and other branches of its umbrella organization, InterVarsity.
