“Pentecostal Pope” probably exploded a few brains. Hehehe.

I went to some Catholic charsimatic Masses in the 90s and was briefly part of a charismatic prayer group.
As long as they follow the magisterium and the rubrics of the Mass, I think it’s a good movement. It’s dead in too many Catholic churches I go to on Sundays. The people don’t sing and act like they can’t wait to leave. When there’s disobedience to one or more major teachings of the church, how can the congregation be alive, though? In fairness to the people, it seems like there hasn’t been very much teaching by many priests on the hard issues. A woman at my parish once told me that Pro-Life petitions were not read at Mass to avoid upsetting the “Pro-Choice” members of the parish. I was incredulous.
