Called & Gifted
Holy Trinity Parish 200 Boundary Rd., Spruce Grove, Alberta, CanadaSince 1993, over 200,000 laypeople, clergy, and religious across the globe have embarked on the Called & Gifted™ Discernment Process to uncover how the Holy Spirit is uniquely at work in their lives. This powerful discernment process helps Christians recognize the charisms—spiritual gifts—they’ve been given not just for their own sake, but to represent Christ and be channels of God's goodness for others. Charisms are not reserved for a few; they are for every baptized Christian. As the Catechism reminds us, “All charisms ought to be exercised in the service of God” (CCC 2003). PART 1: Introductory Workshop The Called and Gifted Introductory Workshop lays the foundation for the beginning of discernment. The workshop introduces Church teaching on charisms and includes taking the Catholic Spiritual Gifts Inventory. Throughout the workshop, you'll explore: The unique role of each Catholic, and the local parish, in the Church’s mission to the world. Why charisms are essential in helping laypeople serve others and build vibrant Christian communities. The signs and characteristics of 24 common charisms. How discovering and using your charisms can transform your life, your parish, and the world around you.
