I do know that there are charismatic Catholic prayer groups and charismatic Catholic Masses. Contact your diocese and they should be able to put you in touch with a charismatic Catholic prayer group and tell you about any upcoming charismatic Catholic Masses. |

Peaceful Dove is a good example - she has such a beautiful walk with the Lord and really has the Joy of the Lord shining through her.

Actually, there are a few Catholic Charismatic parishes in the US that I have heard of. They are very rare. I came the closest attending one in Spokane WA, St Paschals, a number of years ago. I loved it. It seemed like most everyone was Charismatic. The Pastor was Fr. Dan Wetzler who was also the Liaison for the Renewal. He retired and is now on the road as a Speaker and Evangelist.
What a lovely Priest he is.
However, most Catholic Churches are blessed if they have a good, solid Catholic Charismatic Prayer Group. Most Diocese has a Liaison for the CCR and as mentioned above can give you directions to a Prayer Group in your area.
I also suggest you google "Catholic Charismatic" and your city/town and state. You will be surprised by the response.

I feel that my faith has me doing this. I've never heard of Charasmatic Catholics but I was baptized Catholic. I wonder how to find these prayer groups.

Hello there, I'm a newbie in this forum and found it by the grace of the Lord 
However, I've been serving God in Charismatic Catholic for a decade...and yes, it's a great experience. It's more lively and the gifts of the Holy Spirits are put to practice more than in the mass.
I was baptized Catholic when I was a baby, but being a Charismatic Catholic you are not only baptized by water but also by Spirit...and that's what make charismatic catholic a little bit different than the traditional one. AFAIK, there's no charismatic catholic church. There are charismatic masses and prayer groups (as stated above), though. In my city, there are about 13 cc prayer group. I think you can find information in some churches. |

all Catholics are baptised with water and Spirit, baptism is an act of the Holy Spirit even if done to little children

St.Raphael pray for us
O angel of God, my holy guardian, given to me from heaven, enlighten me this day, and save me from all evil. Instruct me in doing good deeds, and set me on the path of salvation. Amen. |

a charismatic catholic web site.....
Charismatic...charisma....gifts of the Holy Spirit .....
God is , was, will be a loving Father who interacts with his children who make a faith demand upon him, via praise and worship
God still heals, delivers, and answers prayers
God sill comes when his children gather in his name
some times the room smells of flowers....the aroma of Christ ...Lilly of the Valley, the Rose of Sharon ... |  | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | | | |
