Charismatic MovementThe Charismatic Movement is a movement for the adoption of certain Pentecostal beliefs—specifically what are known as the bibilical charisms of Christianity: speaking in tongues, prophesying, etc.—within mainstream Protestant and Catholic churches. In the Roman Catholic church, this movement has been heavily associated with people of Filipino ancestry. Traveling Priests and lay people associated with the movement often visit parishes and sing what are known as Charistmatic masses. It is thought to be the second largest distinct sub movement within Roman Catholicism, along with Traditional Catholicism. It presents a difficult situation for many Church authorities, who may not agree with its teachings but find it difficult to oppose because it is supported by some of the strongest remaining members of the Church. see also: charismatic
