Cursillo

Cursillo is part of a movement of the church that helps to equip and inspire Christians to be active apostles for Christ. It is a model for continuing the experience of the 'three day weekend'  for the rest of our lives within a supportive and encouraging community. We are encouraged "to bloom where we are planted"'

Cursillo really needs to be experienced to be fully understood.

Cursillo is a Spanish word as it originated in Spain. It simply means ‘a short course’. It inspires us with on-going support and encouragement for our personal growth in Faith.  We are challenged to live an active Christian life, wherever we may find ourselves.

 

There are three phases of Cursillo:

• The pre-Cursillo when prayerfully the purpose of Cusillo is shared with others.
• Attendance at a Cursillo three-day short course.
• The Fourth Day, or rest of our lives, supported by Group Reunions and Ultreyas with others who have attended a Cursillo weekend to encourage us on our journey.
