WELCOME TO TRENTON CURSILLO
"Cursillo" is a spiritual experience that helps our hearts and minds grow with the great love that Jesus has for each of us. The purpose of the Cursillo ("Cursillo in
Christianity") is to help us grow in faith and to help us to live a fully Christian Life.
UPCOMING CURSILLO EVENTS
SCHOOL OF LEADERS
School of Leaders is held at Visitation Parish. The start time is 10:00.
For anyone that would like to attend Mass at Visitation, they have Mass at 8:15 on Saturday mornings.
The dates for 2025 are: 5/17, 6/21, 7/19, 8/16
Please come for some group sharing, great talks, and information.
DIOCESAN MASS
The date for our next quarterly Diocesan Mass is to be announced.
If
you like to sing and/or play an instrument and would like to be part of
the music at Cursillo events such as Mass and School of Leaders, please
contact Tara at 908-278-3909.
ULTREYAS
All are welcome to join us at any of our Ultreyas. "Ultreya" is a Spanish word, derived from the original Latin, meaning Onward! It was used commonly by pilgrims to greet and to encourage one another
while on journeys. This word is now used by the Cursillo community to signify the meeting where we come together to share on the tripod of Piety, Study and Action.
