Charismatic Catholics No. 2

I am not a Charismatic Catholic, but they intrigued me mainly because of my love for music.  They say that music can soothe the savage beast.  In the Way, music is twice the prayer.  The Way also have their own music.  Most of the Way's music came from the Bible while a few were created by Kiko.  

The Charismatic Catholics are proving to be a competition for the Pentecostals in South America.  Like the Neocatechumenal Way, the Charismatic Catholics are also being persecuted by fellow Catholics.  However, they are on the rise in many places in South America and Asia.  Former Catholics are reverting to the Catholic Church in South America and joining the prayer groups of the Charismatic Catholics  The advantage that South America have in revitalizing Catholicism was the election of Pope Francis who came from Argentina.  

The video below was from a Charismatic Catholic conference that was held in the Czech Republic in 2007. I love listening to the song despite that I don't know the language.
