What is the Cursillo Weekend?
The Cursillo Weekend is a three-day residential course held at a Conference/Retreat Centre in the Diocese of Niagara.

• It is the experience of living for three days in a community of people who are consciously trying to live as Christians.
• It is an opportunity to step back briefly from the everyday life of the secular world and focus on one’s spiritual life.
• It is a concentrated opportunity to help us recognize Christ’s presence and action in our lives and in the lives of others.
• It is the opportunity to share, through discussion, our thoughts and ideas with others, and to reflect on Christ’s and the Church’s teachings.
• It includes fifteen talks, given by laity and clergy, on such subjects as: Faith, Laity, Christian Community in Action, the Sacraments, Faithfulness, Changing Environments, Grace.
• It includes daily worship services.
• It begins on Friday evening and ends on Sunday afternoon.

The Cursillo Weekend can be a significant and very real experience of what it is like to live in a community that is focused and centered on the love of God through Jesus Christ. That is the joy that makes those who have attended a Cursillo so enthusiastic about the Weekend
