We are grateful for all the blessings of the Charismatic Conferences (Adult and Youth). Thanks to the
many people who volunteered their time and talents to support these efforts. Jesus said that the
measure that you give will be measured back to you. We believe that God has much more in store
for us. We want to invite you to take advantage of the opportunities we are offering for getting further training over the next two months. If we are going to have a positive influence in our Archdiocese, it is important that we have wise leaders with good training. You are never too young or too old
to learn more. We are always Jesus’ disciples, and the best leaders are those who are always learning and growing.
Training Opportunity 1: I, (Fr. Bob) will be offering a program called A NEW GENERATION OF LEADERS LED BY THE SPIRIT. We need to pass on the gift of the Charismatic Renewal to the next generation! This program is for people between the ages of 18 to 49. See the information in this newsletter for all the details. Everyone should pray and ask the Lord who is a young person that you should
invite to attend this program. The Holy Spirit will show you if you ask. Has your life been touched
and transformed by the Holy Spirit? Then Pass this on to a younger person. We need you and everyone to pray that this grace can continue in the Church. Every prayer group is encouraged to invite
some people to attend. We have many young people who attend our youth events, but we need
young adults who are excited about learning to live in the Holy Spirit and let the Holy Spirit empower
them to serve others. All our groups need to raise up new people who are well trained disciples of
Jesus who know how to minister in the Holy Spirit. This is an important time to build up our young
leaders and have them get to know other young people who are excited about the work of the Spirit
in their lives. Let’s get the word out! When someone with a healing gift comes to town the word
spreads like wildfire. Forming strong young leaders is even more important! The program will be on
6 Thursdays at St. Mary Magdalen Church beginning on April 8. Call the Charismatic Center (2267545) to register.
Training Opportunity 2: We will be having our regular Spring Prayer Group Training Days on two Saturdays (April 24 and May 1 from 10:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Charismatic Center). The theme for
these days, sponsored by the Service Committee, is Building Foundations and Building Bridges:
Solid Foundations and Connecting Bridges. It is important that every prayer group brings a team of
people. Last year at these days we developed 4 zones in the city for the prayer groups. This has begun to bear good fruit. We want to build on this. We want to stay connected! When we are well connected we are powerful in the Lord! No matter what stage your prayer group is in, you can find God’s
direction for your group and be a blessing for the group and your parish. You will learn about key
principles for the ongoing growth and strength of your groups. I (Fr. Bob) want to set up a schedule
for visiting each prayer group, so we need representatives from every prayer group at these meetings. Please call us if you are not able to have someone come. We need to hear from every group.
We have started to send e-mail reminders to people. Let us know if you have an e-mail address, but
are not yet on our list.

FROM THE SERVICE COMMITTEE:
Greetings to all my Brothers and Sisters in the Lord Jesus Christ,
Many thanks to you the faithful who read the newsletter, who continue to support
the Charismatic Renewal Center through thick and thin and who remain focused
on Jesus’ call to evangelize the whole world through the power of Holy Spirit.
I rejoice in the Lord’s guidance of our Church in the signs and wonders that he
accomplishes in us. This evidence has been seen in the people touched at our
conference on March 6th and with its focus on the building and nurturing of our
families who are the building blocks on which we build on the foundation of
Christ. More amazing was the wonderful turnout of 1100 youth at the Youth Explosion on March 13th. I believe these numbers will increase in the near future
due to spiritual thirst and hunger that the youth have and cannot be satisfied but
only in the living waters and the living bread which is Christ Jesus.
Be happy for the Lord has not abandoned us but is always with us. We must be
confident in God’s abundant providence, but we also must do our part, first in
prayer, then in action. Be prepared to heed the call by using the gifts and talents
you were blessed with. Yes my friends, you have been called.
I remain sincerely your servant,
Deacon Agustin (Sonny) Arismendez, Co Chairman

A NEW GENERATION OF LEADERS
LED BY THE SPIRIT

As the Holy Spirit in Scripture anointed young
adults like David, Mary and Timothy, we invite
young adults to grow in leadership gifts, allowing
the Holy Spirit to work through them in building
up God’s people. Come to receive the wisdom,
power and love of the Holy Spirit for serving others.

Building Bridges: Solid foundations

Let us continue to follow the Spirit who
gave us special graces for family and
community building at our conference
in March. It is important that we stay
connected and build bridges in order to
hear the Lord fully, and enter into the
graces he has for us. It is important
that every prayer group brings a team
of people. We will be learning about
some key principles for our groups.
Time: 7:00 pm. to 9:00 pm. on Thursdays. We
will join the St. Mary Magdalen Prayer Group at
7:00 pm for Song, Praise and Worship for the first
