Called & Gifted


St. Wenceslaus is offering the Called & Gifted™ Discernment Process developed by the Catherine of Siena Institute to all parishioners. It is led by lay leaders from St. Wenceslaus who have been specially trained by the Catherine of Siena Institute. Sessions are offered twice a year.

The process is designed to help Christians discern the presence of charisms in their lives. Charisms, or spiritual gifts, are special abilities given to all Christians by the Holy Spirit to give them power both to represent Christ and to be a channel of God’s goodness for people.
