Cursillo.....

....is Spanish for short course, and the initial weekend is exactly that, a short course in Christianity. Its purpose is to help committed Christians look at their faith and their abilities, in order to encourage and help them be more active in their Christian lives. As the number of stipendiary clergy decreases it is important for the laity to be more active in their church's ministry. Cursillo aims to be one way in helping this to come about.

Our Bishop's thoughts

published by Michael Webb on Tue, 2011-05-31 11:28

Discovering God more deeply is something we all want to do. Meeting with others in a creative space for prayer, worship, learning and encouragement is a vital part of this. For many Cursillo has been this space - and has changed their lives for good.

I very warmly commend Cursillo to you. It is an excellent example of Clergy and Laity working together. I know God uses Cursillo weekends to change lives.

I pray that through Cursillo, the Spirit of God will touch the lives of many people, bringing new spiritual life and renewal.
