“Cursillo” is a Spanish word meaning “short course”. A Christian Cursillo is a short course in Christianity. On a Cursillo weekend, participants explore the meaning of their faith.

Through a community of small groups, participants discuss these new insights and explore ways to implement them into life. Cursillo is also just fun.
