The Catholic Charismatic Renewal of Nigeria (CCRN) is a Spirit-filled movement within the Holy Catholic Church. It is a movement of the Holy Spirit offered to the entire Church and destined to rejuvenate every part of the Church's life.

The goals of the Catholic Charismatic Renewal are the same as the goals and objectives of the Church herself. The Renewal seeks the conversion, salvation and sanctification of all people, and their unification into an effective assembly of God's people. While the Renewal places a special emphasis on the role of the Holy Spirit, it is also centred on God our Father, and on Jesus his Son, our Lord and Saviour. It's a Trinitarian Renewal.
For this reason it's also about the essential things in the Christian life."
• The need to know God as a loving and forgiving Father
(Romans 8:14-16).
• The need for a personal relationship with Jesus as Lord and Saviour
(1 Cor. 12:3).
• The need for the empowering and in-dwelling presence of the Holy Spirit
(Acts 1:4-5 and 8).
• The importance of the Scriptures
(2 Timothy 3:16-17) and the Sacraments (Catechism sections 1131-1134).
• The call to prayer, and to the praise and worship of God
(Acts 2:42-47).
• The importance of the charisms, or gifts of the Holy Spirit, to help us serve the Church (1 Cor. 12:4-11).
• The need to build Community   
(Acts 2:42-47).
• The commission to evangelise and to be witnesses
(Acts 1:8 and Matthew 28:19-20).
