The Southern California Renewal Communities (SCRC) organization is an official ministry of the Los Angeles Archdiocese in California to foster and support charistmatic renewal within the Catholic community. SCRC began as a charismatic prayer group at Loyola University in 1970. Fr. Ralph Tichenor, SJ became the spiritual director the following year. In 1972, Cardinal Timothy Manning solicited SCRC to minister to the Los Angeles Archdiocese through charismatic prayer groups. The Service Center opened in 1973. The Catholic Renewal Convention – sometimes called the “Nation’s Largest Catholic Charismatic Conference” – has been held annually since 1972.
