Patti Gallagher Mansfield, front left, was a 20-year-old junior at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh when she attended a Holy Spirit retreat Feb. 18, 1967, with about 25 college students. The “Duquesne Weekend” is the acknowledged beginnings of the Catholic Charismatic Renewal in the United States, which has spread around the world.
