What is Cursillo?

In the Episcopal Church, Cursillo (pronounced kur-see-yo) is a spiritual renewal movement designed to deepen faith, develop Christian leaders, and build a supportive community.

 

Originating in the Roman Catholic Church in Spain, the word translates to "short course" and refers to a highly structured, three-day spiritual experience that prepares us for the rest of our lives as Christians.

 

In the Episcopal Church, Cursillo operates under the authority of local Diocesan Bishops and is overseen by the Episcopal Cursillo Ministry. Its ultimate goal is to equip adults to discover their personal vocation and effectively share Christ's love within their homes, workplaces, and local parishes.
