About Catholic Charismatic Renewal
Other Catholic Charismatic Renewal Groups
The Catholic Charismatic Renewal in the U.S. consists of
thousands of men and women who come together in a variety
of ways.
At the local level, there are prayer groups that meet weekly,
some that meet monthly or occasionally and covenant communities.
Many are in English, but some are in Spanish, Haitian-Creole,
Korean, Portuguese, Vietnamese, Polish, and Italian. Our
Filipino brothers and sisters sometimes break out in Tagalog.
We hope to add the capability of searching for prayer groups
by location and diocese sometime this year if funds can
be can be found to gather the information.
At the (arch)diocesan level, there are Days of Renewal,
Retreats and Conferences. Most (arch)dioceses have a Liaison appointed by the (arch)bishop.
About 70 (arch)dioceses have some type of office that provides
services to the Renewal. We call these offices (some are
no more than space in a rectory) Renewal Centers.

On the national level there are a number of leadership groups
that are concerned for the Renewal. In their Grace for
the New Springtime the U.S. Bishops Ad Hoc Committee
wrote in 1997:
Finally, aware of various pastoral concerns and needs,
we want to affirm the National Service Committee and the
various ethnic national service committees that have emerged
in recent years; diocesan liaisons and their Association
of Diocesan Liaisons; the various networks of covenant
communities, such as the Fraternity of Catholic Charismatic
Communities and Fellowships; and others in providing leadership
for the Renewal
For a number of years now the National Service Committee
and these groups have been meeting every January for the
Gathering of National Leadership Groups: Catholic Charismatic
Renewal.
