NATIONAL CURSILLO® MOVEMENT WORKSHOPS
The following workshops were created by the National Secretariat and National Staff
as a service to affiliated Diocesan Movements. The workshops are made available to advance the Cursillo Leaders' knowledge,
understanding, and proper implementation of the Cursillo essence, purpose, methodology, and charism,
thus, improving the overall effectiveness of the Diocesan Movements. Contact your Regional Coordinator
to schedule a workshop for your diocese.

Cursillo
Leaders Workshop I (CLW-I) [R]
This workshop is the basic workshop for
a new Movement or a Movement with new leaders. It is designed to
give the leaders an in depth view of the Purpose, Strategy, and Method
of the Cursillo Movement. If a Diocesan Movement has never had a
CLW or if it has been a number of years since the last CLW, then CLW-I
would be the workshop that should be given rather than CLW-II.
Cursillo
Leaders Workshop II (CLW-II) [R]
This workshop is designed to be a follow
up on CLW-I. Where CLWI explores the basics (Purpose, Strategy, Method),
CLW-II goes a step farther and tries to capture the mentality of the founder
of the Movement. The workshop gives those attending a view of the Movement
as seen and experienced by the founder.
Cursillo
de Cursillos [R]
Eduardo Bonnín developed a Cursillo de Cursillos (CDC)
in order to provide Cursillistas with a deeper understanding of the Foundational
Charism of the Cursillo Movement. This inspiring three-day workshop has a more
relaxed atmosphere than the 3-Day Cursillo Weekend with plenty of time for reflection,
sharing, and question and answer sessions. The CDC begins on Thursday evening
and concludes on Sunday evening. Similar to the Cursillo Weekend, the CDC must
be a living experience for the Cursillo leaders. The CDC helps the Cursillo
leaders delve into all the spiritual and technical elements of our Movement in
light of its charism. A total of 15 Rollos and 5 Meditations are presented. This is
a cloistered workshop like the Weekend.
Pre-Cursillo
Workshop [D]
This workshop is designed to assist the Diocesan Cursillo
Movement to better understand how they are to study the environments (study the persons)
that need to be evangelized. It provides a clear understanding of "environment"
(the person and his circumstances). It points out how we should select and prepare
the key people of these environments to live the Cursillo. The workshop emphasizes how the
individual Cursillistas should be selecting key people from the environments they
are immersed in - their immediate moveable square meter.
The Cursillo Weekend Workshop [D]
This workshop is designed to assist the Diocesan Cursillo
Movement to conduct a simple yet authentic Cursillo weekend using people who are living the
Cursillo Method. It covers the role of the Team Coordinator, Team Members,
Spiritual Advisor, etc., and explains the purpose of Palanca.
Postcursillo
Workshop [D]
As the Leaders Manual states; "If the purpose
of the Cursillo Movement is to find, lead to conversion and sustain evangelizers
in their task of evangelizing the world, then the most difficult task will
always be to sustain them." The Postcursillo Workshop reinforces
the tools of the Cursillo Method: Group Reunion (the reality of life shared
with friends) and Ultreya (the circumstances that makes it possible for the best
in everyone to reach as many as possible).
Pastoral
Planning Workshop [D]
This workshop is designed to assist the
Diocesan Secretariat and the School of Leaders to develop a plan to take the
Diocesan Movement from where it is to where it can and should be:
effectively evangelizing environments.
Commitment
Workshop [D]
This workshop has the Diocesan leaders
taking a good look at "what prevents the Cursillista from making a deeper commitment
to the Cursillo Movement." It provides a way to have the participants arrive
at a solution for the obstacles that stand in the way.
Sponsor's
Workshop [D]
This workshop is designed to educate/train Cursillistas who want to
sponsor someone to Cursillo. The Diocesan Secretariats need to formalize training and education
of Sponsors to ensure they really understand this essential role. The Sponsors need
to understand the why and the how of sponsoring a person (friend) to Cursillo. This
workshop should be provided on an on-going basis since there will always be Cursillistas who
need to understand and follow this concept. Cursillistas who are not in the School of
Leaders will want to sponsor a "friend" to Cursillo therefore; they need to understand the
purpose of Cursillo and their responsibilities as a friend and a Sponsor. This training/education
will benefit all Cursillistas.
