We are called "Renewed in Christ Catholic Charismatic Community". The four "C"s in our group's name describes us perfectly.
- The first "C" is for Christ. We have our lives centered on Jesus Christ and renewed by His Spirit, we seek to be channels of His grace and love to all around us.
- The second "C" is for Catholic. We are fully Catholic, and are obedient to the Pope, our Bishop and the teachings of the magisterium.
- The third "C" is for Charismatic. We are open to and seek to use all the gifts and charisms of the Holy Spirit which He gives us to edify and build ourselves and others through faith acting in love.
- The fourth "C" is for Community. We meet weekly for our prayer meetings. We celebrate events jointly. We share our burdens with each other and we support each other in prayer and whichever way we can. We are growing together in our knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ and learning to love and serve each other and our church and our communities.
Our mission is to therefore to bring Christ to the world, firmly founded in the Catholic Church, on the wings of the Holy Spirit, that we may enfold all within a community that is Renewed in Christ.
We believe that "if anyone is in Christ, he/she is a new creation. All the old has passed away and all the new has come". (2 Cor. 5:17) We have, and are continually experiencing this to be true for all of us in our group. We want everyone to have the same experience. We invite you all to "come and see". We meet every Friday at 6.30 PM, at St. Louise Church, Bellevue, Washington. |

Then Peter stood up with the Eleven, raised his voice and addressed the crowd: "Fellow Jews and all of you who live in Jerusalem, let me explain this to you; listen carefully to what I say. These men are not drunk, as you suppose. It's only nine in the morning!
No, this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel: 'In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy. I will show wonders in the heaven above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and billows of smoke. The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and glorious day of the Lord. And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.'
[Acts 2:14-21] |
