Or anyone here work with or are involved strongly in the catholic charismatic renewal?
Thanks. Really wish my home parish had a charismatic movement. I really miss the praise and worship from my former Pentecostal Church.
Pentecostals are really anti-Catholic. Very uninformed about our faith unfortunately. I don’t agree with alot of their folk tale theology (that’s what my seminary professor called it).Could you not go to a Pentacostal or other christian prayer group just for the charismatic element? That is called Ecumenism and is okay as long as you are strong on your catholic beliefs

That is very interesting. The movement of the Holy Spirit in our lives is what makes our faith come very alive. The Spirit enhances our worship and devotion to God. He makes are heart of stones, become living with the beating heart of Christ. Blessed Pope Benedict knew this.Just go ahead and start a catholic charismatic prayer group.

Yes, the early church was full the “POWER” of the Holy Spirit. In the original Greek language it is, “dunamis”, which means:The entire early church was charismatic…
