After exploring Pentecostal mission statements and recent Pentecostal missiologies, points of convergence are identified from a Catholic perspective in recent magisterial statements on mission. By acknowledgement of the “sign” value of the Pentecostal movement, the Catholic Church is called to a greater fidelity to mission in the power of the Spirit. |
