Prayer Groups

A Charismatic Prayer Group is a community of support, encouragement and prayer that allows those who participate to grow in faith and to support their church and community. A Charismatic prayer group will have sung worship, scripture, prayer and praise and will use and discern the Charisms (speaking in tongues, words of knowledge, prophecy, prayers for healing) within the heart of the local Catholic church community.  

2024 A Year of Prayer

In preparation for the “Pilgrims of Hope” Jubilee in 2025 Pope Francis has asked for 2024 to be a year of prayer. He said, “I would greatly desire that we devote 2024, the year preceding the Jubilee event, to a great ‘symphony’ of prayer. Prayer, above all else, to renew our desire to be in the presence of the Lord, to listen to him and to adore him. Prayer, moreover, to thank God for the many gifts of his love for us and to praise his work in creation, which summons everyone to respect it and to take concrete and responsible steps to protect it”.

The prayer groups listed  below will help you to rise to the “Symphony of Prayer” that Pope Francis has asked that we reach.

“Breathe into me, Holy Spirit, that my thoughts may all be holy. Move in me, Holy Spirit, that my work, too, may be holy. Attract my heart, Holy Spirit, that I may love only what is holy. Strengthen me, Holy Spirit, that I may defend all that is holy. Protect me, Holy Spirit, that I may always be holy.”
Saint Augustine
