Cursillo

WOMEN'S CURSILLO POSTPONED UNTIL OCTOBER

Cursillo  is a Spanish word meaning "little course."  It refers to a short course in Christian living.  The Cursillo Movement is made up of individuals who have participated in similar short courses by attending a weekend and endeavor to apply Christian principles in their daily lives.


We have several Fourth Day Groups at Shepherd of the Hills.  For information on meeting times and places, please contact Monica Waugh at mfarnerwaugh@gmail.com.

The purpose of these weekends is to help practicing Christians:

  • Renew and strengthen their love of Jesus
  • Grow in Faith, knowledge and personal holiness.
  • Bring Christian Values to all environments and people with whom they come into contact and make those values the pattern for their own lives.
