Description
Summary:This article aims to reflect on the diversity of the expressions of consecration that occur in contemporary Roman Catholicism and in the Archdiocese of Belo Horizonte, that lies in the sharing of ecclesial spaces between new forms of consecration, such as the New Communities, and ancient forms of consecration updated in the contemporaneity, such as lay consecration and hermetic life. In this sense, the article points out to different expressions of apostolic action, understanding of Catholicism and institutional organization. Thus, the diversity that makes up today's Catholicism will initially be discussed; The status of the new forms of consecration, especially the New Communities, differentiating them from other forms of consecration present in Catholicism, will then be considered. Finally, the article will present some of these expressions in a concrete way, briefly presenting their history, charisma and apostolic action. The conclusion points to the perception of a constructive logic of religious experiences, in relation between Catholicism and the cultural, religious, philosophical and theological realities surrounding, present in the different forms of consecration, as well as the existence of a certain porosity between different contemporary groups, which construct meanings through resignifications. In this research, we worked from the perspective of the phenomenology of religion, with information collection techniques based on bibliographic and digital references, as well as unstructured interviews.
