Winner of a 2020 Excellence in Publishing Award from the Association for Catholic Publishers (third place, Spanish). Charismatic Renewal is the largest movement among Hispanic Catholics in the United States, with almost half of parishes with Hispanic ministry also having a Charismatic Renewal community. In Renovación Carismática Católica, Andrés Arango, a leader in the movement in the United States and Latin America, guides lay people and pastoral leaders to understand Charismatic Renewal and its importance for Hispanics in the US Church. Andrés Arango offers a pastoral vision of the powerful and dynamic experience of the Catholic Charismatic Renewal and its biblical and theological roots. Informed by his many years of personal involvement as a diocesan, national, and international leader in the Charismatic Renewal, Arango and his new book, Renovación Carismática Católica: Una corriente de gracia, will animate both participants and leaders to bring the joy and energy of the movement to the work of evangelization, faith formation, and pastoral care. Renovación Carismática Católica will help Hispanic Catholics involved in the Charismatic Renewal be more faithful to the movement’s mission and fully integrate it into the life of the parish and the wider Church. The book outlines the identity of the Renovación Carismática Católica; the history of the movement, particularly in the United States and Latin America; the mission of this current of grace; contributions to the Latino community, particularly in the United States; and recommendations for building bridges within the Church and ideas for incorporating the evangelization efforts of the movement into parish life activities. Reflection questions for individual and group use are provided at the end of each chapter. Those within the movement as well as leaders outside it will come to appreciate the contributions that the renewal has made to the Church and the opportunities that this current of grace could bring to the work of evangelization.
