I, too, had a powerful experience when I encountered the Power of the Holy Spirit released in my own life. I was involved in the CCR for years, and even coordinated a state conference of Charismatics in Valdez, Alaska in the late Seventies.

Although I haven't been active in the ongoing CCR, I retain the deep faith and the spiritual boldness that was released in me on that exciting day.

Consequently, it was very saddening to see the movement infiltrated by New Age, Gaia-worshipping speakers and charlatans who managed to distract and derail the movement in many places with their hocus-pocus and touchy-feely pseudo-religious cant.

I am sure that the strong core of the movement has remained pure to this day, so I still believe the Catholic Charismatic Renewal can be a powerful force for good in this needy world.

Hmmm... Very interesting. I, too, received the “Baptism in the Spirit” at age 15. And it has made a great difference in my life.
