It Is Time to Kick Prepping Into Overdrive, Because This Stock Market Crash Is Just the Beginning

It Is Time to Kick Prepping Into Overdrive, Because This Stock Market Crash Is Just the Beginning


As I have discussed repeatedly, I have more of a sense of urgency about the last six months of 2015 than I have ever had about any other other specific period of time.

If you have not been preparing for what is coming, you need to get off your sofa and you need to start prepping right now. Just remember what happened back in 2008. That crisis took most people totally by surprise. Millions of Americans lost their jobs.
Most of them were living paycheck to paycheck. So all of a sudden, most of them couldn't pay the rent or the mortgage. Large numbers of families who once lived a comfortable middle-class lifestyle suddenly found themselves destitute. Well, this coming crisis is going to be even worse by the time it is all said and done, and it is not just going to be economic in nature.
Over the past two trading days, the Dow has gone down more than 1,000 points. The shaking that so many have warned about has begun. As this shaking plays out, you and your family will need cash, food, supplies and a whole bunch of other things. If you do not already have everything prepared, then you need to kick your prepping into overdrive, because we are on a very compressed time frame now.
But don't just take my word for it. A top adviser to former British Prime Minister Gordon Brown named Damian McBride is saying the same thing:
"A former adviser to Gordon Brown has urged people to stock up on canned goods and bottled water as stock markets around the world slide."
And he didn't just speak in generalities. According to an article in one of the most important newspapers in the U.K., McBride is urging his fellow citizens to do some very specific things:
"Advice on the looming crash, No. 1: Get hard cash in a safe place now; don't assume banks and cashpoints will be open, or bank cards will work," he tweeted.
"Crash advice No. 2: Do you have enough bottled water, tinned goods and other essentials at home to live a month indoors? If not, get shopping.
"Crash advice No. 3: Agree a rally point with your loved ones in case transport and communication gets cut off; somewhere you can all head to."
All of that is great advice. But I wonder why he is so concerned about people being able to live a month indoors. Does he know something that the rest of us do not?
Others are issuing similar ominous warnings. The following is an excerpt from a recent article by Chuck Baldwin that seemed to be written with an unusual sense of urgency:
I suggest you have a supply of food and water to last at least three months. Many survival experts insist that a six-month supply is the minimum. Personally, I can live a long time on tuna fish or peanut butter. You can purchase MREs from a variety of sources, as well as camp-style packaged food from many sporting goods stores. Of course, bottled water is available everywhere during normal times. Stock up! Distilled water will store longer than spring water. Plus, I suggest you have some water purification tablets or a Katadyn water filter on hand. And if you are able, prepare to grow your own food. In cold weather climates such as we have here in Montana, people quickly learn how to construct and utilize greenhouses in which to grow food. Canning food is another very helpful hedge against deprivation. If your parents and grandparents lived through the Great Depression as mine did, this was standard operating procedure.
Get a generator. Keep a supply of fuel on hand. Stay stocked up on batteries, candles, portable lights, first aid supplies, and toiletries—especially toilet paper and toothpaste. I also suggest you never run out of lighters or matches. You never know when you'll need to build a fire. If you live in a cold weather climate, you probably already have some sort of wood stove or fireplace.
You can read the rest of that outstanding article right here.
Similar sentiments were expressed in a recent piece by prepper extraordinaire Daisy Luther:
  • Take your money out of the bank ASAP. If you still keep your money in the bank, go there and remove as much as you can while leaving in enough to pay your bills. Although it wasn't a market collapse in Greece recently, the banks did close and limit ATM withdrawals. People went for quite some time without being able to access their money, but were able to have a sense of normalcy by transferring money online to pay bills or using their debit cards to make purchases. Get your cash out. You don't want to be at the mercy of the banks.
  • Stock up on supplies. Make sure you are prepped. If you're behind on your preparedness efforts and need to do this quickly, you can order buckets of emergency food just to have some on hand. (Learn how to build an emergency food supply using freeze-dried food HERE.) Hit the grocery store or wholesale club and stock up there, too, on your way home.
  • Load up on fuel. Fill up your gas tank and fill your extra cans also. Quite often, fuel prices skyrocket in the wake of a market crash.
  • Be prepared for the potential of civil unrest. If the banks put a limit on withdrawals (or close like they did in Greece), you can look for some panic to occur. If the stores dramatically increase prices or close, (there will be) more panic. Be armed and be prepared to stay safely at home. (Although this article was written during the Ferguson race riots, civil unrest follows a similar pattern regardless of the cause.)
  • Be prepared for the possibility of being unable to pay your bills. If things really go downhill, the middle class and those who are the working poor will be the most strongly affected, as they have been in Greece during that country's ongoing financial crisis. This article talks about surviving if you are unable to pay all of your bills.
Every family is facing a different set of circumstances, so "prepping" is not going to look the same for everyone. What may make sense for you may not make sense for me. But the truth is that we all need to get prepared for what is coming, because time is running out.
As I have discussed repeatedly, I have more of a sense of urgency about the last six months of 2015 than I have ever had about any other specific period of time. That is why the book that I recently co-authored with survivalist expert Barbara Fix is titledGet Prepared NOW. The word "NOW" is in larger print than everything else on the front cover because I really wanted to emphasize the urgency of what we are facing.
If you think that you can wait until next year to start getting prepared, you are going to be too late.
This stock market crash is just the beginning. Next month we are witnessing a convergence of events that is pretty much unprecedented. If you would like to learn more, here are some places to get started:
The relative stability of the past few years has lulled millions of Americans into a state of complacency.
And even our politicians are displaying a stunning level of complacency. For example, even though our nation is rapidly going down the toilet, Barack Obama has played more than 1,100 hours of golf while he has been in the White House.
It is time for all of us to awaken from our slumber, because life in America is about to dramatically change.

Israel's History - a Picture a Day - Painting of Jews Arriving to Ottoman Empire in 1492

Israel's History - a Picture a Day (Beta)


Posted: 25 Aug 2015
The Ottoman Imperial Archives continues to release amazing pictures, photos and documents from the rich Ottoman history.  The painting below is the latest example. We thank the archivists for their wonderful work which can be seen on Twitter @OttomanArchive as well as the archives' website.

The modern-day caption says "More than 150,000 Spanish Jews Fled the Spanish Inquisition and Brought to the Ottoman Empire in 1492."  The painting shows Jews who escaped the Spanish expulsion and rabbis getting off their ship and meeting dignitaries.

How to Avoid the Middle-Eastern Shuk (in dealing with Iran)

How to Avoid the Middle-Eastern Shuk


Why weren't Israelis like Benjamin Netanyahu brought in to help broker the Iran nuclear weapons deal?
Why weren't Israelis like Benjamin Netanyahu brought in to help broker the Iran nuclear weapons deal? (Reuters file photo )
Standing With Israel
Two out of every three Americans, and 75 percent of Israelis, are opposed to the administration's deal with Iran because it does not block the world's No. 1 sponsor of terrorism from acquiring nuclear weapons. On the contrary, it legitimizes the very nuclear program Iran denied they had, and allows for their full acceptance as a nuclear state at the end of the agreement
There is a very good possibility that in early September, Congress will be able to muster the votes to at least bring about a show down with the administration, if not actually produce a veto-proof majority vote. One thing is for sure, during the week of the vote, the halls of Congress will be filled with thousands of American citizens lobbying their members of Congress against the deal thanks to a number of groups planning lobbying days, press conferences and rallies then.
Opposing the deal is one thing. But, the question that everyone wants answered is: What is the alternative? Its opponents say the alternative is to broker a better deal. However, the fact is that the American negotiating team will not be able to broker a better deal unless they learn to negotiate like an Iranian.
The Middle-Eastern Shuk
Most Middle Easterners can negotiate Americans under the carpet, because they literally grow up negotiating everything, from the cost of fruits and vegetables in theshuk (market) to higher-priced items like appliances and home goods. Americans only negotiate when they purchase a car or a house. So, what can we learn from the Middle-Eastern shuk?
No. 1: Never pay the stated price. A shopkeeper will not quote the price that he expects you to pay but an inflated price that leaves room for negotiating. Never agree to the stated demand. Always offer less.
No. 2: Never start where you want to end. Once a price has been stated, respond with an offer that is so ridiculously low that it is embarrassing. This is where many Americans stumble, because they do not want to look like they are cheap, nor do they want to insult the poor merchant. But if you do not counter low, you will end up paying too much.
No. 3: Make them think it really hurts. Middle Easterners love to play along with their opponent by telling how much the counter offer hurts while displaying great emotion and perhaps emphatic gestures. Compare this to the average American who usually avoids any display of emotion. They are not used to such reactions, so they will quickly give in and pay the high price thinking they may have insulted or hurt the feelings of their negotiating partner.
No. 4: Don't trust your opponent. Americans are at heart a very honest people, and look down on any type of lying. So, they assume everyone else is telling the truth like they are! In the Middle East though, truth can be sacrificed to achieve the goal of leaving the negotiations with honor and respect back home. Therefore, don't believe everything your opponent says.
No. 5: Be prepared to walk away. When the stakes are high, and the deal being brokered is just not good enough, then the buyer has to be willing to walk out the door. The merchant knows then that he has lost the sale, and he will run after the buyer with a new offer. Being too eager to make a deal is perceived as weakness and will be taken advantage of. Always be willing to walk away.
Only those privy to the negotiations know how well or how poorly the American team did. But, based on their eagerness to close a deal, and the response of the Iranians, who said they got everything they wanted, it appears the American team was out-negotiated.
To broker a better deal with Iran, perhaps we should consider bringing in the Israelis to negotiate for us. They have much more experience in the Middle Eastern shuk.

Jonathan Cahn: America Is Racing Toward Judgment

Jonathan Cahn: America Is Racing Toward Judgment

With Asia's richest man losing $3.6 billion in China's Black Monday, some financial advisors are telling clients to get everything but operating cash out of the bank and exit the stock market before it's too late.

Jennifer LeClaire is now sharing her reflections and revelations through Walking in the Spirit, a new podcast from Charisma. Listen at charismapodcastnetwork.com.

Watchman on the Wall, by Jennifer LeClaire
It doesn't take a prophet to see the shaking. The Dow is volatile, with U.S. stocks rebounding after a punishing spurt even as China's market continuing to slide.
With Asia's richest man losing $3.6 billion in China's Black Monday, some financial advisers are telling clients to get everything but operating cash out of the bank and exit the stock market before it's too late.
I'm praying against a widespread panic, as many voices—some responsible and some irresponsible—are trumpeting the end of the world as we know it in September. Even if the worst happens, panic is not the answer. Our hope and our trust are in God and God alone, not in man and mammon.
Jonathan Cahn, author of The Harbinger and The Mystery of the Shemitah, has said (and continues saying) he believes we're standing at a critical time. He's not the only one. Many others in many different streams—including Franklin Graham, Rodney Howard-Browne and Rick Joyner—are echoing this statement.
"America is racing toward judgment," Cahn says. "Not one but multiple factors are converging."
Indeed, America long ago reached a tipping point. Our economy is on artificial life support. Economies in Europe are crashing. Economies in Asia are sliding. And it's not just fiscal issues raging. Our government is sanctioning sexual immorality and the secular media is ignoring shameless exploits of fetal harvesters like Planned Parenthood.

What shall we do? Despite Cahn's strong and repeated warnings, he is not without hope. That's one of the differences between him and all the doom and gloom prophets who don't make room for the sovereignty or the mercy of God.
"I am led to call for a period of prayer, repentance and intercession for America, to end on Sept. 23, Yom Kippur," Cahn says. "It is crucial the people of God come before Him now on the foundation of 2 Chronicles 7:14: 'If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their evil ways, I will hear from heaven, I will forgive their sin, and I will heal their land.'"
As I've said before, I believe God's discipline is on this nation and I believe it will get worse before it gets better. But I also believe God is bringing a Third Great Awakening to the land. I believe the latter rain is coming. I interviewed many men and women of God in my book The Next Great Move of God: An Appeal to Heaven for Spiritual Awakening who believe the same things.
I'm believing for a supernatural outpouring of the Holy Spirit. I'm believing for the wells of the Voice of Healing movement to be uncapped and for even mightier miracles to flow. I am believing for transforming revival to heal the land. Most importantly, I am believing for a great harvest of souls. I'll be ministering in Manchester, Kentucky, this weekend where God did all of this and more. It can happen in America.
Sid Roth, the host of It's Supernatural, seems to be sensing the same thing. He tells Charisma News there is great truth revealed in the Shemitah message about coming economic chaos. But God has just given him eyes for the impending great awakening.
"I believe that even though there will be challenges in America, the great awakening will trump the economic problems. I see the greatest creative miracles in history taking place," Roth says. "I see hospitals where people with missing limbs suddenly grow new limbs, and the miracles being reported on the evening news. I see college football stadiums jam-packed with worshipping Christians. I see God taking care of His people supernaturally. I see Jesus coming back soon!"

Judge: Videos on Fetal Parts Trafficking Legal


Judge: Videos on Fetal Parts Trafficking Legal


Following a Los Angeles County Superior Court judge ruling that the Center for Medical Progress has a constitutional right to release undercover videos on the trafficking of baby body parts, CMP released another video plus a trailer of those to come.

The latest video shows the CEO of StemExpress, the company that purchased aborted babies from Planned Parenthood, laughing about how her lab technicians were shocked when they received fully intact aborted babies.

"Tell the lab it's coming, and they open the box and go, 'Oh God!" StemExpress CEO Cate Dyer says in the video.



Dr.Deborah Nucatola, Planned Parenthood director of Medical Services, talked about the demand for fetal organs.

"Yesterday was the first time she said people wanted lungs," Nucatola explains. "And then, like I said, always as many intact livers as possible."

In CMP's newest video, Planned Parenthood Research Director Melissa Farrell talks about providing intact baby cadavers for harvesting internal organs.

"So, if we alter our process and we are able to obtain intact fetal cadavers...it's all just a matter of line items," Farrell explains.

CMP suggests those "line items" apparently mean greater profit for Planned Parenthood.

In an undercover video released in July, Dr. Mary Gatter says, laughing, "We agreed that $100 would keep you happy? I want a Lamborghini. I said I want a Lamborghini. Don't we all, right?"

The buying and selling of human fetal tissue is a violation of federal law.

While LA Superior Court Judge Joanne O'Donnell has allowed the public release of the undercover videos, a StemExpress violation of privacy lawsuit against CMP will move forward.

Chuck Pierce's Latest Update - "DO NOT BE AFRAID WHEN THE BULL BEGINS TO RUN AGAIN!"


August 25, 2015
Chuck Pierce's Latest Update on Financial Shakings and the Stock Market:
"DO NOT BE AFRAID WHEN THE BULL BEGINS TO RUN AGAIN!"
Chuck D. Pierce, Corinth, TX
Steve ShultzFrom the desk of Steve Shultz:

This is the prophetic revelation that many of you have been waiting for. You want to get a Word from the Lord from a prophet about the financial situation in the USA and in the earth. You want to know what's going to happen with the Stock Market. And you want to know what the next year or two holds.

OK, the good news is that this word by Chuck Pierce is quite specific and even names dates. The challenge is that this is not going to be the easiest word to understand, so let me try to clarify some things here. Two of Chuck's trusted prophetic friends had dreams about the financial crisis. The Lord then gave Chuck the interpretations of these dreams plus some direction for God's people.

1) God's intention is to help the Body of Christ prosper in the days ahead because of the shift that is taking place.

2) DO NOT FEAR. Say this over and over again, "God is in control. I will not be afraid!

3) Read this word from Chuck several times:
Chuck Pierce: I want you to stop and understand one thing about wealth: Wealth does not go away. Rather, wealth is transferred from place to place to place. You are not to think, "Oh my, everything is going to crash and the wealth will be gone." That is not how it works. Rather, you are to ask "How will it be transferred?" and "How will this transfer affect you?"

4) IMPORTANT: Chuck said there will be ONE MORE GREAT SHAKING NEXT MONTH! THAT MEANS SEPTEMBER!

Chuck Pierce: The Beast is a coalition that is organized to manipulate the transference of wealth this hour. There will be one more great shaking in the next month. Then we must see how to move with revelation that will secure the operations of God's Kingdom for the next two years.

5) Now Read this paragraph several times:
Chuck Pierce: What is happening now will be a protection to you in days ahead. The Beast is a coalition that is organized to manipulate the transference of wealth this hour.There will be one more great shaking in the next month. Then we must see how to move with revelation that will secure the operations of God's Kingdom for the next two years. 

6) This repeatedly talks about a "BULL MARKET." This is a Stock Market condition in which the prices are going mainly up, which encourages investment. 

Now read this paragraph:
Chuck Pierce: Anne's dream is about a Bull Market returning, but this market will be controlled by a coalition, rather than the Federal Reserve System manipulations. In your field there will come a time when the bull will be predominant. 

People need to make financial decisions now, but that can be very difficult because of emotional attachments to money. Some people need to get out of stocks and bonds, and make decisions to do that.[Note by Steve Shultz: This seems to be because you are not able to get out from under your controlling emotions so the Stock Market is NOT FOR YOU!]

You have to make your decisions, but if you live in fear then you will never grab hold of the "bull-beast" when he begins to overshadow in the spring. In the midst of what we're going through, there is a secure, peaceful place to be confined. Don't fear Babylon. 

God will bring angelic help to reveal how the overshadowing of the "bull-beast" coalition will cause us to prosper in days ahead. [Note by Steve Shultz: for those who God has stay in the market, he will send angelic help if you ask, to show you how to take advantage of the Bull Market. You are not to fear, as if this has to do with BABYLON! God is helping His People prosper.]

7) Here is a good Word... a promise of God through Chuck Pierce:
The Lord would say, "Don't fear being sucked up by the sinking financial hole that has formed. By February 19-21, you will find that monies and supply that you thought were gone for good, have been waiting to find their way back to you. Even though you have shut accounts from the past, the monies are being held for you to steward again."

8) Read this over and over again...
Chuck Pierce: "There is a change in your field that's coming. Do not try to overprotect those in the change; just announce the change is coming, and be aware that we all will be affected and must make a move. In the midst of that, know that I will send an overshadowing opportunity back in your way in days ahead. When this overshadowing comes, ask for clear revelation on how to increase. The next six months, beginning now, will be key for you to understand the changes in the field so you can see a shift in My provision in days ahead. Do not be fearful. Be at peace, make your changes, and watch Me send in what you need for the future in your field."

Chuck Pierce's Latest Update on Financial Shakings and the Stock Market: 
"DO NOT BE AFRAID WHEN THE BULL BEGINS TO RUN AGAIN!"
Chuck D. Pierce, Corinth, TX

Tuesday, August 25, 2015

Dear Friends and Economic Watchers:

Although many things in the world around us may seem to be spiraling out of control, the LORD is continuing to speak to His people. He is our strong tower in time of need, and the One who aligns our emotions so we can hear and embrace His revelation for this season. This was clearly seen in our services yesterday. Don't miss the key dreams and prophetic revelation below!

We are watching history being made. Most of America, and perhaps the world, thought that the Federal Reserve was the most powerful economic agency in the world. However, the incident of the market drop yesterday refuted that idea. China showed that they could manipulate the world market for their benefit as we approach the new Jewish Year, 5776, and the new civil year 2016. The Lord revealed this to me in 1986.

The two dreams below given by the Lord to Anne Tate and Emma Moore reveal the future of the economic world. Pray for me as I continue writing the third book that will project key revelation for God's Kingdom people through 2026.

Emotion vs. Vision: Shutting Unwanted, Soulish Doors!

The LORD had me begin Sunday morning during our Triumphant Faith Institute component with a message on "Emotion vs. Vision: Shutting Unwanted, Soulish Doors!" In a time when much seems to be shaking, we must not allow our emotions to dictate how we respond to hurts, fears or confusion. Rather, we must allow Holy Spirit to bring healing and deliverance to areas that will close off access that the enemy has been using, to distract and capture us. This is a message that some of you will want to hear several times, and one that will give you hope to rise to a new level of discernment and wholeness.

Finding Your Place in the Company of the LORD!

During our Celebration Service on Sunday, Robert Heidler shared on "Finding Your Place in the Company of the LORD: The Host of Heaven and His Army on Earth!" As we push to complete this year of Ayin Hei with a new strength, we must understand with whom we are aligned. In this first of two messages by Robert, he taught on angels and how we partner with the army of Heaven. I am fond of saying, "Don't run off the angels!" We are entering a season when we will need the angels to interact with us as never before, so don't miss Robert's teaching that will open your eyes in a new way to the host of Heaven. Next week he will continue this message by teaching on God's Army on the Earth!

Don't Fear the Bull When He Runs Again! Two Key Dreams for NOW!

During the service on Sunday, I invited Anne Tate to share a dream that speaks into the global financial gyrations we are seeing. After she shared the dream publicly, Emma Moore (one of our financial records stewards), shared another key dream. I wanted to share both of these dreams with you, along with what I hear the Lord communicating through these dreams.

Dream 1: Winter Will Come! You Will See That Finances You Are Owed Will Return!
The weather was icy and snowy. There was a big sinkhole in the street that was surrounded by ice. I was trying not to get sucked up by the hole that had a slippery edge. A person from my past showed up with papers in hand. He was explaining why he hadn't sent me the money he owed me. He said my account had been closed. Then I woke up.
The Lord would say, "Don't fear being sucked up by the sinking financial hole that has formed. By February 19-21, you will find that monies and supply that you thought were gone for good, have been waiting to find their way back to you. Even though you have shut accounts from the past, the monies are being held for you to steward again."

Dream 2: Do Not Be Afraid When the Bull Begins to Run Again
I was standing in a large field under a single tree – which is interesting because we're in the month when the King is in the field. I was trying to protect someone and when I came to them, I said, "The Beast has been loosed!" The person I was trying to protect got up and they were able to run. I turned and saw a BULL and it was running straight for me and I knew I couldn't do anything. Suddenly the bull was over me and I was under it and I was at peace; the BULL was just standing there.
I said, "Lord, Chuck gave a word when we were in Malaysia that said when you get in a situation that you can't do anything about, ask for an angel. So You're going to have to send an angel to help me here."
I knew it was fall because the grass was not green, but dying, and the tree's leaves had turned colors. It seemed to me that we will be "under" the bull for a while because when the dream ended I was still under him and it was part of what the Lord did to assist me angelically.
We must understand that a tremendous economic shift is going on. However, I want you to stop and understand one thing about wealth: Wealth does not go away. Rather, wealth is transferred from place to place to place. You are not to think, "Oh my, everything is going to crash and the wealth will be gone." That is not how it works. Rather, you are to ask "How will it be transferred?" and "How will this transfer affect you?"

China has now taken the lead in economic influence, transfer, and manipulation.

Eventually the BULL will overshadow you. That means to hover over you. That says that the market is being restructured. Gain revelation from the changes that occur this week. Ask for angelic assistance on how to move.

What is happening now will be a protection to you in days ahead. The Beast is a coalition that is organized to manipulate the transference of wealth this hour. There will be one more great shaking in the next month. Then we must see how to move with revelation that will secure the operations of God's Kingdom for the next two years.

We've heard prophecies this year about the economic shift that would be taking place by September 2016. What I prophesied was that we wouldn't start seeing the new order of that shift until mid-February into March 2016Therefore, I think we're seeing the shift happen right now, and people have to know what to do. Understand that this shift is going to affect you in whatever field you are in. You can be fearful in the midst of this shift, or you can stand in that field and attempt to help others make it through without their emotional crash.

Anne's dream is about a Bull market returning, but this market will be controlled by a coalition, rather than the Federal Reserve System manipulations. In your field there will come a time when the bull will be predominant. People need to make financial decisions now, but that can be very difficult because of emotional attachments to money. Some people need to get out of stocks and bonds, and make decisions to do that.

You have to make your decisions, but if you live in fear then you will never grab hold of the "bull-beast" when he begins to overshadow in the spring. In the midst of what we're going through, there is a secure, peaceful place to be confined. Don't fear Babylon. God will bring angelic help to reveal how the overshadowing of the "bull-beast" coalition will cause us to prosper in days ahead.

"There is a change in your field that's coming. Do not try to overprotect those in the change; just announce the change is coming, and be aware that we all will be affected and must make a move. In the midst of that, know that I will send an overshadowing opportunity back in your way in days ahead.

"When this overshadowing comes, ask for clear revelation on how to increase. The next six months, beginning now, will be key for you to understand the changes in the field so you can see a shift in My provision in days ahead. Do not be fearful. Be at peace, make your changes, and watch Me send in what you need for the future in your field."

Blessings,

The Holy Spirit Remains Alive in Catholics Worldwide

Outside of the United States, the Charismatic movement has flourished in the Catholic Church.

Strang Report, by Steven Strang, Founder of Charisma magazine
The Charismatic Renewal began less than 10 years before Charisma first published in 1975. In fact, we get the name Charismatic Renewal from the Catholics who, when they received the Baptism of the Holy Spirit at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh and later at Notre Dame in South Bend, were called "neo-Pentecostals."
Apparently someone didn't like that term and, so, they referred to the movement as "renewal" of the charismata, which, in Greek, means gifts in the plural. So, Charismatic comes from the word charismata rather than the word charisma (which is the singular form).
The name stuck, and now most Pentecostals use it interchangeably with the word Pentecostal.  
The Catholics who experienced God's power believe that it was an outgrowth of when Pope John XXIII invited "a new Pentecost" at Vatican II in 1962. Few things have changed the Catholic Church as much in our lifetime as the Charismatic Renewal. By 2013, according to Catholic World Report, some 160 million worldwide had received the experience called the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, which almost always accompanied a renewed love for Christ and fervency about serving God and serving the church.  
In the early days of Charisma, we covered the charismatic movement a great deal. On our charismamag.com site, we are republishing some of those early articles about the move of the Spirit, not only among Catholics but other groups too. You can read a couple of those articles titled, "A Classic Pentecostal Encounters Charismatic Catholics," and "Charismatic Renewal: The Conference 'Heard Around the World.'"
The Catholics always saw their movement as "ecumenical," and they interacted with the Protestant charismatics and Pentecostals on the basis that the Pope had encouraged ecumenical dialogue.
In fact, I have had some people tell me that while top denominational leaders engage in ecumenical talks with other leaders, the only real grass-roots ecumenical movement in the world is the charismatic renewal.
As time passed, it seemed that Catholic charismatics became more Catholic and less charismatic. I could be wrong, but I have had some friends who have expressed that opinion to me, and that has been my observation. The huge conferences Catholic charismatics held back in that era are no more and the smaller conferences that are still held have a relatively low profile. No real large parachurch-type ministries have emerged like in the Protestant charismatic movement. For example, there are no large parachurch television ministries and so forth.  
This is not to say that the Spirit is not at work or that the Catholic charismatic movement has dwindled or died. In a way, that notion somewhat parallels Full Gospel Businessmen, which has declined a great deal in the United States but taken off worldwide. The same thing holds true for the charismatic movement in the Catholic Church.  
Bert Ghezzi, a graduate student who came from the Pittsburgh area but was studying at Notre Dame, worked as one of my editors for a number of years. During this era, he may have been the link between Pittsburgh and Notre Dame. Much of what I know about the charismatic movement I know from Bert and my interaction with him. He did a great job as an editor and is one of the most ecumenical people I've ever known. He retired a number of years ago and I still miss him. 
Bert recently made these observations to me in an email about the Catholic Charismatic Renewal: 
"The Catholic Charismatic Renewal has slowed in the U.S., but continues to grow in Latin America. It slowed when bishops tended to make prayer groups into parish organizations (instead of the freewheeling groups of the early days). ...  Observe that many Catholic Charismatics have followed the leadings of the Spirit into a wide variety of services: caring for the poor, religious education of the young and adults, evangelization and so on. Although EWTN is not a charismatic network, it began with Mother Angelica, a charismatic nun, and is now a worldwide media conglomerate."
You can check out Bert's blog titled,  "Praying in the Spirit" at bertghezzi.com.
I would be interested in feedback from Catholic charismatics who read this to see if you agree with my observations. Also, please check out the links to the articles that we're publishing. I believe you will enjoy reading them and reminiscing. I also think they are still interesting and pertinent after all these years.
