Dear Parishioners,Greetings! My name is David Brooks, and I am a longstand-
ing parishioner here at St. Ignatius. I am also the newly elected Director of Charismatic Renewal Services for the Archdiocese of Boston, website www.CRSBoston.com., with an office at the Pastoral Center in Braintree. I would like to explore with you what Catholic Charismatic Renewal is, examine its begin-nings in the U.S., its history in Boston, and conclude with an invitation to a charismatic healing service here at St. Ignatius on November 16.
Pope Francis defines Catholic Charismatic Renewal as "a current of grace of the Holy Spirit," being poured out for the renewal of the church in our time. There is an emphasis on a personal, experiential relationship with Jesus, and on express-ing the gifts of the Holy Spirit. The Renewal is Trinitarian, with worshippers often addressing the creator God as "Abba" in prayer and song. The mainstay of the Renewal is the weekly prayer meeting, which features praise and worship, teaching, intercession, sharing, and both individual and group prayer. There is also an emphasis on complete surrender to Jesus in all aspects of one's life, and obedience to both the mandates of the gospel and Catholic teaching, as well as maintaining Christ-centered friendships in the community.
Catholic Charismatic Renewal was an out-growth of Vatican II originating on February 1967 at a collegiate retreat at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh. The Holy Spirit was experienced in power by the retreatants, and the movement spread rapidly. There are now over 160 million Catholic charismatics in over 230 countries. The first large scale prayer meeting in Boston was held in the early '70s at the former Cenacle retreat house on Lake Street with the blessing of Cardinal Medeiros. Today in Boston the Renewal is composed of 7 ethnic groups - An-glos, Brazilians, Haitians, Hispanics, Nigerians, Ugandans, and Vietnamese - all Catholic charismatic communities with their own prayer groups, united under a single Constitution signed by Cardinal O'Malley.
In a recent article in the Jesuit magazine "America" Austen Ivereigh poses the question: "Could Francis be our first charis-matic pope?" He is, in the sense of having been "prayed over" while Cardinal of Buenos Aires. Fr. Raniero Cantalamessa, the charismatic papal household preacher, and a handful of Pen-tecostal pastors, gathered for his "baptism in the Holy Spirit.” Those so baptized desire and receive a fuller anointing and indwelling of the Holy Spirit. At Pentecost earlier this year, Pope Francis created a new entity, Charis - Catholic Charismat-ic Renewal International Service - an umbrella organization for
Estimados Feligreses:¡Saludos! Me llamo David Brooks, y soy un feligrés de lar-
ga data aquí en San Ignacio. También soy el recién electo Di-rector de los Servicios de la Renovación Carismática para la Arquidiócesis de Boston, cuya página web es www.CRSBos-ton.com, con una oficina en el Centro Pastoral de Braintree. Me gustaría explorar con ustedes lo que es la Renovación Ca-rismática Católica, examinando su comienzo en los EE.UU., su historia en Boston y concluir con una invitación a un servicio de sanación aquí en San Ignacio el 16 de noviembre.
El Papa Francisco define la Renovación Carismática Católica como “una corriente de gracia del Espíritu Santo,” derramada para la renovación de la iglesia en nuestro tiempo. Hay un én-fasis en una relación experiencial personal con Jesús y en expre-sar los dones del Espíritu Santo. La Renovación es Trinitaria, con devotos refiriéndose a menudo al creador como ”Abba” en oraciones y cantos. El pilar de la Renovación es el encuen-tro de oración semanal, que contiene alabanza y adoración, enseñanza, intercesión, compartir y tanto oración individual
como grupal. También hay énfasis en el rendirse completamente a Jesús en todos los aspectos de la vida, y obediencia tanto a los mandatos del evan-gelio y la enseñanza Católica como a mantener amistades Cristo céntricas en la comunidad.
La Renovación Carismática Católica es una extensión del Concilio Vaticano II, originada en febrero de 1967 en un retiro estudiantil en la Uni-versidad de Duquesne en Pittsburgh. El Espíritu
Santo se manifestó con fuerza entre todos los del retiro y el movimiento se extendió rápidamente. Ahora hay alrededor de 160 millones de Católicos carismáticos en más de 230 países. El primer encuentro de oración en Boston se llevó a cabo a principios de los años 70 en la antigua casa de retiros Cenáculo en la calle Lake con la bendición del Cardenal Medeiros. Hoy en día en Boston la Renovación está compuesta por 7 grupos étnicos – anglos, brasileños, haitianos, hispanos, nigerianos, ugandeses y vietnamitas – todas comunidades Carismáticos Católicas con sus propios grupos de oración, unidos por una sola Constitución firmada por el Cardenal O’Malley.
En un artículo reciente en la revista jesuita “América,” Aus-ten Ivereigh pregunta: “¿Podría ser que Francisco sea el primer papa carismático?” lo es, en el sentido de que hacia “oraciones especiales” cuando era Cardenal de Buenos Aires. El P. Raniero Cantalamessa, el predicador de la casa papal y un grupo de pa-stores Pentecostales se reunieron en su “bautismo del Espíritu Santo.” Esos bautizados anhelan y reciben una unción más completa y son moradas del Espíritu Santo. En Pentecostés, hace pocos meses, el Papa Francisco creó una nueva entidad,

"Love compels each of us to resist racism courageously."It requires us to reach out generously to the victims of this evil, to assist the conversion needed in those who still harbor racism and to begin to change policies and structures that allow racism to persist. Overcoming racism is a demand of justice, but because Christian love transcends justice, the end of racism will mean that our community will bear fruit beyond the equal treatment of all. After all, “Within the human family,” as St Paul said, “each person preserves and expresses its own identity and enriches others with its gifts of culture."

Immigration CommitteePasaje de las Escrituras con que rezar esta semana:
“Jesús levantó los ojos y le dijo: ‘Zaqueo, bájate pronto, porque hoy tengo que hospedarme en tu casa.” Lucas 19:5.
¿Será que Jesús me está invitando a que “me baje” y le de la bienveni-da a él en los inmigrantes que vienen a este país?
Scripture passage to pray about during the week:“Jesus looked up and said, ‘Zacchaeus, come down quickly, for today I must stay
