The Diocese of Lafayette-in-Indiana is partnering with the Catherine of Siena Institute to offer the Called & Gifted charism discernment process to parishioners throughout our diocese. Click here to learn more about Called & Gifted.  

Our next diocesan-wide Called & Gifted workshop will be offered in English and Spanish on Febuary 4, 2023 at St. Thomas Aquinas in West Lafayette. Registration for this workshop is now closed. Please contact Fr. Brent Bowen with questions: fr.bbowen@dol-in.org.

The first step in the charism discernment process is a day-long workshop to help you understand the charisms and begin to discern which charisms you may have. The second step is an hour-long interview with a trained interviewer who can help direct your ongoing charism discernment. The third step is called Discernment in Depth. This step involves a focused discernment of one particular charism within a small group over 6-8 weeks. Participants are encouraged to complete all three parts of the Called & Gifted process.
