  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

DH, FIL, and MIL are all cursillistas. I participated in the Protestant version for youth - called a Chrysalis. As soon as I get a chance (i.e., not pregnant or nursing a baby), I plan on going on a Cursillo.

BTW, that first link (well, the home page of it) you listed is the one that is for our area. It really needs prayers, because the group seems to be dying - it won't follow National's guidelines. It is a good group, and I'd hate to see it just die off.

"De colores" is Spanish for "of colors". Since the program was started in Spain, it employs a lot of Spanish terms. This one refers to a line in a silly little song you sing in Spanish during the weekend, about all the little barnyard animals and the different colors they are and sounds they make.

My Cursillo Weekend changed my entire life. Before my weekend, I had always attempted to put Christ in my life. I did things here and there, and went to Mass etc. But after my Cursillo I was profoundly changed.

I went from putting Christ into my life-
to
Putting my life in Christ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
