Called and Gifted

"I see a church of individuals alive to their own personal vocations, and at work appropriating them in all the dimensions of their lives."                  + Bishop Ronald Gilmore

Equipping Catholics to be lay apostles                        for their mission to the world

The Called & Gifted workshop guides individuals through a process of discernment in which they may recognize their charisms, gifts given by the Holy Spirit through baptism and confirmation. Charisms enable Christians to accomplish things for God above and beyond their natural abilities.

DISCOVER ~ DISCERN ~ DEVELOP
Your Gifts through the Called & Gifted Workshop

Charisms are real clues to who God created you to be,
and what God created you to do!

You will learn:

  • How discerning your gifts and your call can change your own life
  • How discerning your call can change the world and help spread the Gospel
  • How discerning and using our gifts together can help transform our parishes
  • The signs and characteristics of the most common spiritual gifts
  • Five steps of discerning the gifts God has given you for your work in the world
You have been empowered with gifts of the Holy Spirit!
You are called to a special work of love that only you can do!

The workshop will teach you about gifts of the Holy Spirit
that are at work in your life.

Workshops are presented by the Catherine of Siena Institute of Colorado Springs.
