to the website for English Cursillo for Diocese of Oakland California. If want to find out what Cursillo is all about, you have come to the right place. If you are already a member of our community, there are are lots of opportunities here to get involved or to find important information.

CURSILLO is an international, lay organization formed to share the life-changing power of Christian Community with members of our local faith communities. The Early Church was known for its enthusiasm, communal spirit, hunger for social justice, and lively faith. In Cursillo, we believe this profound experience of Christian Community is waiting for us to experience as well. Each of us has unique talents and gifts to share and together we can exemplify the change we are committed to bring to our daily environments.

The Cursillo adventure begins with a structured 3-day retreat where each person is given a chance to examine his or her life, share perspectives, better understand our faith, and to experience first hand what Christian Community is all about.
