"Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer and on the third day rise from the dead, and that repentance and forgiveness of sins should be preached in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem . You are witness of these things. And behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you; but stay in the city until you are clothed with power from on high." (Luke 24:46-49 RSV)
Catholic Charismatic Renewal has helped many millions across the world to rise to this challenge, renewing their relationship with Jesus and coming to know Him personally so that they may more effectively proclaim the name of Jesus, through their words and through lives of service in their communities or further afield. Prayer has become a delight to them as they worship God with a spontaneous and authentic joy and they are more able to live their lives with a sense of abiding peace and hope. |
