Emerging charisms, aka new communities, are either aiming at becoming a secular institute; religious institute; or society of apostolic life. There is also the category of ‘new movement.’
That being said, the individual lay person, who is considered a charism by canon law, can indeed develop their own personal prayer rule and habit. There is every possibility that adherents can be attracted to them, and a new community form.
I ask that if you are attracted to a new community, to please give it the benefit of the doubt and contact them. Some founders may still be in the process of discerning the guiding documents. I pray for your patience with them. Nothing is going to be perfect. Even established communities aren’t perfect. Perfection doesn’t exist on the earth, only in Heaven.
That being said, I – and hopefully others – will post the links for new communities in this thread. Age limits will be given if possible.
