Welcome. Since our first Cursillo weekend in February 1987, we have organized 69 men's and women's weekends and more than 592 women and men have attended one of our Cursillo weekends. We currently have strong Cursillo communities in the West-Island of Montreal (Ste-Geneviève United Church, Roxboro United Church), the South Shore (Richelieu Valley United Church), the Rawdon area (Mid-Laurentian Pastoral Charge), and, in Ontario, in Cornwall (Knox-St.Paul's United Church), Kemptville (St. John's United Church) and Chesterville (Trinity United Church). Ultreyas. We gather regularly, the last Sunday of the month, for fellowship, singing and sharing of our faith at Ste-Geneviève United Church. Everybody is welcome at these gatherings, also called ultreyas. If you play an instrument, bring it along. For the schedule of the ultreyas and directions see here. Cursillo Reunion Event was held Saturday, April 17, 2010, 10:00 am - 3:00 pm @ Ste-Geneviève United Church. About 70 people attended this event, coming from as far as north of Brockville, ON, Vermont and New York. We had lots of singing, accompanied by accordeon, flute, keyboard and six guitars. Four people shared some of their post cursillo weekend experiences. We also had some table discussions, sharing of our faith in a small group. The pot luck lunch was amazing. We ended the day with a short worship service and the celebration of communion. For the poster see here. Cursillo Road Shows.
A few
times per year a group of cursillistas goes on the road
and visits a church in either eastern Ontario or the greater
Montreal
area. We bring our special music and, after consultation with the
minister of that church,
we take part
in the Sunday worship service. Past and upcoming
road shows are described here.
