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.

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.
