'The Catholic charismatic renewal'

The Catholic Charismatic Church of Canada does not have a specific founding date. It is a movement within the Catholic Church that emerged in the late 1960s and early 1970s, characterized by an emphasis on spiritual gifts such as speaking in tongues, healing, and prophecy. It is not a separate church but rather a renewal movement within Catholicism.
