Metuchen Cursillo Movement

Welcome to the website for the Metuchen Cursillo Movement. The Cursillo experience is one that will enhance your spiritual life and growth for a lifetime. This website will answer some of your questions about how the Cursillo method works, however it is best to talk with a person who has attended a Cursillo weekend and has personal experiences to share. 

Many Catholics have lived and grown through the Cursillo Weekend and have experienced a progressive transformation in their spiritual life. I invite you to explore the possibilities for yourself and if interested, please email us for further information.

We who have made the Cursillo are praying for you that Our Lord opens new doors of growth and most importantly Joy in His Glory!
 

God Love You,

Bill Grippo
Diocesan Coordinator / Metuchen Cursillo Movement

The Most Reverend James F. Checchio was ordained and installed as the fifth bishop of the Diocese of Metuchen in 2016. In December, 2018, Bishop Checchio launched a Year of Awakening in the Diocese of Metuchen, NJ, which launched a year-long preparation for Consecration to Jesus through Our Lady of Guadalupe.

Highlights of the year include a 9 mile walking pilgrimage in honor of St. Juan Diego, who walked 9 miles regularly to learn the Catholic faith. Several Cursillistas journeyed with over 700 pilgrims through the streets and roads in Hunterdon County.

In October 2019, 78 pilgrims from the diocese joined Bishop Checchio on a fabulous 3 day trip to the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City. Of the 78, 10 were Cursillistas, including 3 priests and 1 deacon.

We are honored to share part of our journey with the Shepherd of our Diocese and we are grateful for Bishop Checchio’s ongoing support of the Cursillo Movement!
