Prayer Meeting - Charismatical Renewal

 

Every Wednesday 8 p.m. in Parish Hall

Members of Charismatical Renewal come together in Prayer Groups. They are people seeking a closer relationship with Jesus and His Church. They gather weekly

  • to praise God in song and prayer
  • to listen to teaching on our Catholic faith
  • to read sacred scripture
  • to witness to the work of Our Lord in their lives

They also pray that the Charismatic gifts of the Holy Spirit may be made manifest among them.

All my life I have been enriched and enthralled by the healing stories both in the New Testament and throughout all the ages of the Church. These include episodes from the many and varied ways that Jesus healed as we find in the gospels, and stories from the early Church of how people were put into the path of Peter to be healed, or the more modern accounts of cures at such shrines as Lourdes.

However, it was only when I myself  was healed of severe sinus trouble at a prayer meeting through the prayers and the laying on of hands by my brothers and sisters that I began to realise the gift of healing was not just reserved for saints, but that the Jesus through the faith of the Church can and does use many people in healing.

Why not come along and join us this Wednesday?
