About Cursillo

* The Most Rev.
“I
am very happy to recommend the Cursillo Movement for your serious
consideration. This Movement has a history of fine accomplishments
in recent Catholic circles, where it appears to have borne wonderful fruit
in the spiritual lives of many people. Those who are Cursillistas
are certainly the kind of people whom one finds energetically promoting
the cause of Christ and His Church in many parts of the world.”
“I
ask God to bless the Cursillo Movement, and, if it is your good fortune to
make a Cursillo, to bless you in that undertaking.”
(Following is a letter from Bishop Paul Bootkoski)
Cursillo
is alive and well in the Diocese of Metuchen! As a Cursillista, I
wholeheartedly endorse the Cursillo Movement in our diocese. I
had the privilege to take part in a Cursillo and found it a spiritually moving
weekend, a time to deepen my awareness of Jesus' love for me and
my commitment as a priest. While
carving out a "free" weekend is a challenge in our fast-paced world
be assured it will be well worth the sacrifice. As
our Catholic Church seeks ever to renew ourselves in our faith, I have found
no better way for an adult to be renewed in the Lord than the Cursillo. Those
who take part will be more deeply a vibrant member of our Church and all will
benefit. If
you have not made a Cursillo, please take the step and discuss your readiness
with a team member. You will not regret it and our Church will be ever
grateful. Yours
in Our Lord, Most
Reverend Paul Bootkowski |
