Catholic Charismatic Renewal - Northampton
CCR is a spontaneous work of the Holy Spirit whereby Catholics experience the presence and power of the Holy Spirit, bringing alive the grace of baptism in new ways. The Holy Spirit not only sets on fire all that has already been received but equips people with new gifts for service and mission.The CCR is a gift for the whole Church and has been referred to as a current of grace by Pope Francis. To help people receive and grow in this grace a certain amount of organisation and support is offered by the National Service Committee (NSC) for England (www.ccr.org.uk) as well local networks that relate to the NSC. In this Diocese a Service Team provides a point of contact and local support for the CCR. Rev Andrew Richardson (Chair), Margaret Dullaghan (Deputy Chair), Rev Simon Penhalagan (Secretary), Anne Nolan (Treasurer), Rev Jim Hannigan, Alex Heath, Maria Heath, Eamonn McMorrow, Paola McMorrow, Yoofi Clarke, Dominic McDermott, David Donaghue. There are charismatic prayer groups, there is also a magazine produced nationally with helpful articles, where charismatic events are advertised called Goodnews (see www.ccr.org.uk/about-ccr/goodnews-magazine/). This magazine is the best way to keep in touch with CCR and is also available in Goodnews books in Luton (01582 571011).

Catholic Charismatic Renewal - Salford, UK
What became known as Catholic Charismatic Renewal began nearly 50 years ago. Since that time, over a hundred million Catholics worldwide would highlight a renewed experience of their faith in the context of the CCR. At its core, the experience of all of these people would be that they recognised their own inability to lead a full and fired-up Christian life by their own efforts, and invited the Holy Spirit to do it on their behalf! At that moment, CCR would say they experienced the `Baptism in the Holy Spirit`. This `Baptism` is not a one-off moment. Like leaking buckets, we constantly need to be re-filled, and remain open to the water of the Spirit. This disposition can be described as living `Life in the Spirit`.

Useful Definitions in the Catholic Church
What is a Catholic Bishops' Conference?
An episcopal conference, sometimes called a conference of bishops, is an official assembly of the bishops of the Catholic Church in a given territory. ... Individual bishops do not relinquish their immediate authority for the governance of their respective dioceses to the conference (Wikipedia).
What is an Archdiocese?
Dioceses ruled by an archbishop are commonly referred to as archdioceses; most are metropolitan sees, being placed at the head of an ecclesiastical province. A few are suffragans of a metropolitan see or are directly subject to the Holy See.
The term 'archdiocese' is not found in Canon Law, with the terms 'diocese' and 'episcopal see' being applicable to the area under the ecclesiastical jurisdiction of any bishop.[8] If the title of archbishop is granted on personal grounds to a diocesan bishop, his diocese does not thereby become an archdiocese (Wikipedia).
What is a Diocese?
The group of churches that a bishop supervises is known as a diocese. Typically, a diocese is divided into parishes that are each overseen by a priest.
The original dioceses, in ancient Rome, were political rather than religious. Rome was divided into dioceses, each of which was made up of many provinces. After Christianity became the Roman Empire's official religion in the 4th century, the term gradually came to refer to religious districts. The Catholic Church has almost 3,000 dioceses. The Greek root of diocese is dioikesis, 'government, administration, or province.' (Vocabulary.com).
As of April 2020, in the Catholic Church there are 2,898 regular dioceses: 1 papal see, 649 archdioceses (including 9 patriarchates, 4 major archdioceses, 560 metropolitan archdioceses, 76 single archdioceses) (Wikipedia).
What is a Deanery
A subdivision of a diocese, consisting of a number parishes, over which presides a dean appointed by a bishop. The duty of the dean is to watch over the clergy of the deanery, to see that they fulfill the orders of the bishop, and observe the liturgical and canon laws. He summons the conference of the deanery and presides at it. Periodically he makes a report to the bishop on conditions in the deanery.www.catholicculture.org
What is a Parish?
In the Roman Catholic Church, a parish (Latin: parochia) is a stable community of the faithful within a particular church, whose pastoral care has been entrusted to a parish priest (Latin: parochus), under the authority of the diocesan bishop. It is the lowest ecclesiastical subdivision in the Catholic episcopal polity, and the primary constituent unit of a diocese. In the 1983 Code of Canon Law, parishes are constituted under cc. 515-552, entitled 'Parishes, Pastors, and Parochial Vicars.' Wikipedia
