The Cursillo Ministry in the Diocese of
Olympia is intended to renew and refresh
our walk with Christ. The Secretariat, like a
Bishop’s Committee or Vestry, oversees
this. The Secretariat is comprised of lay
people and two clergy from around the
Diocese who serve a three-year and two
year term. We are striving to keep the
weekend fresh and inviting and have
eliminated some things that don’t serve the
ultimate goal, and added some things that
do. Our focus has moved from make a
friend, be a friend, bring a friend to Christ to
recognizing our gifts and how we can take
those gifts back to our parishes and
communities to make a difference there.
Although we have lots of surprises still for
the candidates, we have been intentional
about removing what people think of as the
secrets and creating a more open
conversation about the weekend. We are
letting go of what does not feed the purpose
and ultimate goal, and including what does.
Although the talks are the same topics as
before, the format is different and includes
dialog around those topics. At the day’s end
there is opportunity for candidates to engage
in discussion and make comments to the
room.
The schedule contains the same elements
as before and is intended to be flexible to
enhance those activities. And, as always,
the schedule is at the discretion of the
leader and their vision.
A major goal is to draw in and expand the
pool of interested team members. Expect
some familiar names for a couple weekends
to establish these changes, but hopefully the
developing schedule and new flexibility will
be an intriguing fit for different leaders and
facilities and the participation of the usual
suspects will diminish in frequency. We
seek to be an open and welcoming
community and avoid any appearance of
cliquishness.
We hope team members will request to work
instead of waiting to be called. WE WANT
YOU to let us know you want to work. The
website: www.olycursillo.org has a place to
let us know that and we hope you will seize
this opportunity and also to update your
profile. We want willing hearts, especially
those who have not worked before and want
an opportunity to do so.
Please, join us at mananitas and closing
(check the times!). Come see what God is
doing with these seeking hearts.
