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.

Life Chain
Life Chain is a peaceful pro-life demonstration in its 35th year in Canada. The very first Life Chain was held in 1987 by a group called 'Please Let Me Live Inc.' in Yuba City, California. Participants pray for an end to abortion and for those wounded by it while holding non-graphic signs with messages like "Abortion Kills Children" and "Jesus Forgives & Heals." Specific times and locations of the 375+ Life Chains across our nation will be listed on our website (lifechain.ca) later this summer. On the day of the event, those participating in Life Chain will stand at various predetermined intersections for one hour in quiet prayer, holding non-graphic signs with slogans like: “Abortion Kills Children,” “Abortion Hurts Women,” “Adoption: A Loving Option, and “Jesus Forgives & Heals.” The signs are distributed and collected by a local organizer. This organizer will direct participants and liaise with any law enforcement, business owners, or media. Please contact your local organizer if you have any questions or concerns. Alternatively, you may contact Life Chain Canada (1-800-730-5358, lifechain@campaignlifecoalition.com).
