What is Cursillo?

  • Cursillo is a Roman Catholic lay movement that aims to deepen participants’ spiritual lives and encourage them to be more involved in their Christian faith.
  • Cursillo is an opportunity to retreat from the chaos of daily life to spend time with God and fellow Christians on a three-day Weekend.
  • Cursillo provides tools and strategies to enhance your:
    • Piety – Deepening your relationship with God.
    • Study – Understanding your faith, and God’s plan for your life.
    • Action – Outwardly living your faith in a real and effective way.
  • Cursillo will help you appreciate the impact of God’s freely given Grace in your life, and the role of the Sacraments as channels of that Grace.
  • Clergy are an integral part of each Weekend (normally a Priest and one or two Deacons).

The Diocese of Lexington Cursillo Secretariat is pleased to announce that we are hosting two Cursillo Weekends in 2026, as follows:

  • Women’s #62: August 27 – 30, 2026
