Abstract

The publication focuses on the phenomenon of networking among Catholic pentecostal communities, which are an important part of the contemporary Church constantly undergoing the process of pentecostalization. The article is divided into three parts. The first chapter discusses terminological issues based on pentecostal spirituality. The second part, through the analysis of specific examples of communities, taking into account their different structures and modes of operation, shows the great diversity within Catholic Pentecostalism. The third part offers an ecclesiological reflection on the phenomenon of networking and the related challenges.
