Dear Friends,
After living in a Catholic mind set for over three years, we now serve the Catholic Church full-time. I’m not a priest. Lori is not a nun. We are not hired or paid staff members of a parish or diocese. We have followed a lesser common path of “Catholic Lay Missionaries.” (download to read more) 1.32mb

One Day Youth Retreat in Henderson  

St. Jude’s Parish, under the direction of Rev. Jayaselanraj Lucas invited Kerygma Teams out May 15, 2010 to conduct a youth retreat and we all had a great time. WE focused the night on being lead and learning to hear the Holy Spirit.  Our group participated in the Mass, where the message and readings contributed to the overall theme of waiting for the Power from On High. 
 
Lots of games, group activities, praise and worship as well as a relevant message and personal prayer time and ministry left all with a desire to know God deeper. 
 
 

February 2010 Healing Mass

 
Our monthly healing mass in Flint, TX moved to the third Thursday now. Fr. Peter Faulk, a young priest from Alexandria, Louisiana, gave an energetic homily and injected a younger flair to the evening. The weather was favorable and we had a lot of first timers as well as regular folks back to spend time in the presence of the Holy Spirit.

Fr. Ariel Cortes also ministered and preached in Spanish. Our Spanish friends were able to make the adjustment to Thursday in time for this meeting and were greatly ministered to.

Peyton Neill and Angela Krusi ministered in music and we had congregational worship for the first time, before mass.

In March we will have two charismatic masses, Third Thurday in Flint, and Fourth Wednesday in Marshall, TX.
 
 

Charismatic Prayer Group

By Alan, Feb. 10, 2010
         

It happened in the late 60's through the 80's. The Catholic Charismatic “renewal.” Here in the millennium, the Charismatic Catholics in the Diocese of Tyler, TX were kind of underground, or even hibernating. As we started a new Charismatic group for English speaking, we found many of those in our group had turned to the protestants for their spiritual growth for many years.

Many of us are new to the Catholic Church, have come back to the Catholic Church. We all decided the Catholic church is the fullest expression of God's will on earth.

The flame in the red Eucharist candle is igniting the hearts of those God brings to us. There is joy in the camp. We sense a revival beginning, although small. There is a hunger for more of God. Our prayer group is solid and the Holy Spirit is strong. We are praying for God to have His way in this Diocese. You can join us the second Monday of each month in Tyler at St. Paul's Chapel.

We spent time sharing what God is doing in the diocese and in our lives. Then we gather around the tabernacle and lift our hearts to heaven.
