The Cursillo weekend begins on Thursday with a retreat,
allowing everyone to slow down and begin to listen to what God may be
trying to say. The next three days are filled with worship, singing, and
short talks. There is a clergy team on each weekend to provide
sacramental ministry and teaching. After each talk, there is time for
discussion, reflection, and to enjoy the beauty of Camp Chanco. The food
is legendary and the experience of Christian community and love will
touch your heart in a meaningful way.
A Cursillo weekend invites us to dive deeper into the well of
our faith and personally connect with God's unlimited love. Once the
weekend is over, Cursillo is an invitation to a pilgrimage which is
lived every day for the rest of our lives - in every place that God
chooses to plant us. The Cursillo method enables you to:
- Expand your prayer life.
- Spiritually grow through an ongoing formation process that increases your knowledge about God's Word and your faith.
- Form a closer relationship with our King and Savior, Jesus Christ.
- Spread God's Word in a natural way to the people you interact with in the very environments in which you live.
Cursillo is for anyone (including clergy) who wants to go
deeper into their spiritual life through teaching and the personal
experience of both Christian community and the Holy Spirit. It is ideal
as preparation for leadership and lay ministry.
Consider this an invitation should you feel the Holy Spirit
calling you to begin the Cursillo Journey. The next Cursillo weekend in
Southern Virginia is October 13-16 at Chanco on the James.
