Called and Gifted


I was at a Called and Gifted workshop this past weekend…..WOW…it was fantastic. 
One of my favorite individuals, Mary Sharon Moore, was the speaker. I love listening to her and learning from her. Her presentation is so lively and the woman knows her stuff. 
We were first guided to remember that we are all commissioned by God and given Charisms/gifts at Baptism and Confirmation for the good of God’s work to take out to the community/world.  There were 24 Charisms discussed. Our homework the first night was to take inventory through 120 questions, and evaluate on a scale of 0-3 the level of importance or occurrence of particular events in our daily lives.  Very easy to do, and then total your scores to find where your strengths are. It is interesting to see how there may be more that one area you are gifted in and how they work together. 
This was sponsored by the Catherine of Siena Institute out of Colorado Spring CO.   Thank you, 
Siena Institute, so much for this ministry. Additionally, Mary Sharon Moore is an excellent teach and speaker.  I was blessed to be at a Women’s Retreat a couple of years ago where she was the presenter, and was so happy to see her again.   She has also written many books, one in particular that fit this workshop very well, “Anointed for a Purpose”.
If you can…schedule this workshop in your area, it is a must attend.  Clear out the clutter and enable yourself to get down to the real work God intends for you.
