About CHARIS
“I am particularly grateful that my request to you, two years ago, to give the worldwide Charismatic Renewal a single international service based here, has begun to take concrete shape in the acts of incorporation of this new single service. It is the first step, and others will follow, but soon the unity, the work of the Holy Spirit, will be a reality. “I make all things new””, says the Lord (Rev 21:5).”
Pope Francis, Vigil of Pentecost
Golden Jubilee of the Catholic Charismatic Renewal, 3 June 2017

What is CHARIS?
