What Are Charisms?
Charisms (from the Greek charisma, meaning "gift of grace") are special abilities given by the Holy Spirit to help build up the Church and serve others. Unlike the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit received at Confirmation, charisms are given for the benefit of the community.
"To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good."
Examples of Charisms
The Church recognizes many charisms. Here are a few you might discover:
Teaching
Explaining the faith with clarity
Hospitality
Creating welcoming spaces
Mercy
Compassion for the suffering
Leadership
Guiding others toward good
Evangelism
Sharing the Gospel naturally

Meeting practical needs
...and many more including Prophecy, Healing, Administration, Craftsmanship, Music, Writing, and others.
