CATHOLIC CHARISMATIC RENEWAL UK

Catholic Charismatic Renewal is at the heart of the Church, enabling Catholics to be filled with the Spirit and live as effective disciples of Jesus, … The mission of the Catholic charismatic renewal is to educate believers into the totality of the declaration of the gospels. This is done by a personal relationship with Jesus Christ; a one-to-one relationship with Jesus is seen as a possibility by the Charismatic.

What is the CNSC?

The CHARIS National Service of Communion(CNSC) England is the principal co-ordinating organisation of the Catholic Charismatic Renewal (CCR) in England.
We seek to be open to the guidance of the Holy Spirit in both our discussion and activities, and keep in close contact with the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales, primarily through our Episcopal Advisors, Archbishop Kevin McDonald and Bishop David Oakley.
Members of the CNSC work to maintain close relationships with the various expressions of CCR in England. We have a special concern for retaining faithfulness to the Catholic Church amongst these various expressions, but we also maintain links and connections with other Christian denominations and networks.
The CNSC is formed of around fifteen members, and meets four times per year, with regular working group meetings. The current Coordinator of the CNSC is Dr. Maria Heath and the current Assistant Coordinator is Fr. Simon Penhalagan.
