Cursillo (pronounced kur-see-yo) is a
Spanish word meaning a "little" course.
The"Cursillo de Christiandad" (Spanish for
a short course in Christianity) began in
Spain in the 1940s and is now found
worldwide, even here in Montana.
It begins on a Thursday evening and ends
the following Sunday about midday. You
will listen to a series of talks and have an
opportunity to discuss and reflect on the
message of the talks in a small group.
Chances are, the topics of these talks will
not be new but you may find yourself
hearing them in fresh, new ways. The
joyous thing is that ordinary lay men or
women give the talks and, in doing so,
share how the things they will speak of
relate to their lives and to the everyday lives of
Christian lay people everywhere, people like
you!
You will spend the three days with about 20-30
other lay men or women living in Christian
community. All your meals will be provided.
Accommodations for any special needs you may
have will be made. The Cursillo weekend is a
perfect opportunity to relax, to get away from
daily distractions, enjoy the fellowship of other
Christians, and listen to and reflect on how God is
calling you.
Sound exciting? We think so, and we are sure
you will find it to be one of the best three days
you have ever had. |
A Cursillo weekend for many is a new awakening to a deeper friendship with Christ.It won't magically solve the problems of your life. No one will try to convert you.You are free to make up your own mind about what is presented. |
