Abstract

As the wind of God is blowing the Pentecostal flavour and activities everywhere, the Roman Catholic Church in the Archdiocese of Harare has tried to go Charismatic with some traits of Pentecostalism featuring therein. This chapter argues that Pentecostalism in Zimbabwe has impacted different religious denominations at different levels and the Roman Catholic Church is not an exception. The chapter analyses aspects of Pentecostalism that have been incorporated in the Roman Catholic Church in the Archdiocese of Harare.
