The Church rejuvenates in the power of the Gospel and the Spirit continually renews her, builds her up, and guides her 'with hierarchical and charismatic gift’. The second Vatican council has repeatedly highlighted the marvelous work of the Holy Spirit that sanctifies the people of God, guides it, adorns it with virtue, and enriches it with special graces for her edification. As the fathers love to show, the action of the divine Paraclete in the church is multiform. Saint John Chrysostom writes: "What gifts that work for our Salvation are not given freely by the Holy Spirit? Through him we are freed from slavery and called to liberty; we are led to adoption as children and, one might say, formed a new, after having laid down the heavy and hateful burden of our sins. Through the Holy Spirit we see assemblies of priests and we possess ranks of doctors; from this source spring forth gifts of revelation, healing graces, and all of the other charisms that adorn the Church of God". Thanks to the Church's life itself, to the numerous Magisterial interventions, and to theological research, happily the awareness of the multiform action of the Holy Spirit has grown in the Church, thus arousing a particular attentiveness to the charismatic gifts by which at all times the people of God are enriched in order to carry out their mission.
