What Happens on the Three Day Weekend

The weekend starts at 6 PM on a Thursday and ends Sunday by 5 PM.

The general format is one of seminar style talks, small group reflection and discussion, large group sharing and team building/socializing opportunities during breaks and meals.

Interspersed will be chapel prayers as a group, adoration, confession opportunities, daily and evening prayers and mass.

Eduardo Bonnin the founder states: "All I know is if Cursillo is to remain faithful to the purpose for which it was intended and for which it was prayed and for which we have been grateful, it should not lower its target, and they should serve to give those who attend a 'living', simple, clear and true experience of the Christ of the Gospel as best as possible. He, who through his resurrection and by his Grace, is alive, normal and close in each person."

"The Cursillo Weekend is not meant to satisfy the hunger for God, it is meant to create a hunger for Him or to awaken the hunger that already exists in our hearts. It is not meant to answer questions; it is more designed to provoke questions, the kind of questions that will send each person on their own journey of discovery, to go deeper and deeper into all that is Cursillo, not in order to be better Cursillistas but to be better Christians."
