Our office has many presentations on topics which we call, "Traveling
Timothys," which
present various topics of interest for the prayer group, parish group, or
ecumenical community. The CCRO staff makes the first contact with the presenter
after discussing the needs with the group. It is then up to the group and
presenter to finalize the material to be presented and the costs involved.
Inspired by the missionary journeys of St. Paul and his
companions, the Traveling Timothys Program offers assistance in building up and
encouraging prayer groups in serving Jesus Christ and His Church.
Leaders from the Charismatic Renewal Office and established prayer groups are
available to:
· Assist new prayer groups in getting started.
· Foster discernment of a group’s vision and mission.
· Help recognize giftedness including the leadership and teaching charisms.
· Aid in recognizing potential pitfalls of leadership.
· Help facilitate the exercise of the charismatic gifts.
· Provide prayerful assistance and advice regarding various concerns such as
conducting Life in the Spirit seminars.
· Provide teachings on various topics as the prayer group requests.
