The third talk in the Walking in the Spiritual Gifts class, given by Fr. Ed Fride, pastor of Christ the King Catholic Church. This talk was given on Friday, March 7, 2014, at Christ the King Catholic Church as part of the Upper Room Ministry.

This course is designed to inspire and equip participants to walk in the supernatural charisms as a way of life, especially to evangelize and to build up the body of Christ. It expands on last year’s Advanced Charisms Course.

Fr. Ed speaks about the role of experience and our emotional lives in our relationships with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Then he addresses the complementary relationship between the charismatic and contemplative aspects of our lives with God and a particular experience called being slain in, or resting in, the Holy Spirit or, as St. Teresa of Jesus referred to it, a suspension.

Key words: charismatic, charisms, Holy Spirit, Upper Room

This "Issue Life Night" on March 9, 2014 was all about managing stress.  High school is a stressful time, but there are many things we stress out about that are unnecessary, and there are ways to reduce the stress we experience.  A panel of Core Members and Small Group Leaders presented this night including Mary Zahm, Becca Zahm, Frank Whiting, and Patrick Carroll.  After the presentation, we had a large-group discussion that gave the teens an opportunity to share some of their stresses and stress releif techniqus.
