Pre-Conference Clergy DayJune 28, 2018

The Catholic Fraternity of Charismatic Covenant Communities and Fellow-ships known as “The Fraternity” is

an international private association of mem-bers of the faithful that expresses its relation-ship with the Holy Father through a formal link with the Dicastery for Laity, Family and Life.

Founded in 1990, the Fraternity expresses its desire to support one another in following Christ by responding to His call to form cove-nant communities. A covenant is a formal com-mitment to enter into relationship with mem-bers of a community and to participate in their lifestyle and mission. At the heart of such a commitment is the desire to grow in holiness and to be involved in apostolic work in service of the Church’s mission.

In 2018, this Fraternity conference will be held in the North American Region, hosted by Alleluia Community located in Augusta, Geor-gia, USA. It is the first time in many years this conference has been held in the Americas.

The Alleluia Community is a community of men, women, and children, from different Christian traditions who have decided to be a people who live under the Lordship of Jesus. We believe the Holy Spirit has called us togeth-er to witness to the Christian life, culture, and unity that God desires for all people. We are a community whose members have agreed to live out our lives in a committed order for the purpose of helping each other live a full Chris-tian life in the power of the Holy Spirit.

ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

The purpose of the conference is to fellow-ship with community-minded people from all over the world and hear from gifted teachers about our call to be Disciples Together in Mis-sion as well as hear how this is being lived out worldwide.

The Clergy Day will be for bishops, priests and deacons. Both Dr. Mary Healy and Damian Stayne will be the main presenters, talking on the New Evangelization and how dioceses/par-ishes must begin to use the charisms to bring people to personal encounters with Christ and spiritual maturity.
