The school of leaders

Leadership in the Cursillo Movement

  

What is School of Leaders?


The School of Leaders is not a school as one would normally think of  it. In spite of its name, it is intended to be a place for every member  of the Kalamazoo Catholic Cursillo to participate. It's a place to  find out what is happening and provide input and/or apply your gifts,  available time, and desire to help in whatever way makes sense for  you. In essence, it is a group of Cursillistas interested in helping  Cursillo to fulfill its mission of building God's Kingdom in the Diocese of Kalamazoo. 


The School of Leaders offers a joyful and educational community  experience where all can play a part in the success of Cursillo in the Diocese.  It is a place to take part in building God's Kingdom in  many ways:


  • To promote and assure the authenticity and integrity (Charism) of the Cursillo Movement in its three phases - Pre-Cursillo, Cursillo and Post-Cursillo.


  • To help facilitate and enhance the process of welcoming and  inviting new members (Pre-Cursillo), providing an effective and  authentic 3 day encounter experience (Cursillo), and sustain and  stimulate the Cursillio community with joyful and enriching 4th day  experiences (Post-Cursillo).


  • To stimulate and activate servants to Cursillo by offering a wide  variety of participation levels of service in all the areas of Kalamazoo Catholic Cursillo without obligating or committing them to any  specific activity.


  • To unify an active 4th day community that provides ongoing input  and feedback on the effectiveness of the Cursillo in  its mission of building the kingdom of God.

All 4th day members are welcome, new Cursillistas and the seasoned.  We'd love to have you and look forward to seeing you.

Christ is counting on you!

MORE on the S.O.L.

  

The School is and will always be an essential piece for the continuation and development of the Cursillo Movement. In other words, if there is no School, there are no Cursillos and  there is no Secretariat. There could be any other retreat or encounter, but it should not to be called “Cursillo”. There may be a group of “politicians” who can gather together for a good debate or good people who get together to pray but that is not a Secretariat. 


The School is the appropriate environment where the Charism of the Movement can be embraced, studied and promoted; in order to live and preserve its method, essence and purpose. It is the climate of Group Reunion of leaders where it is appropriate to help each other discover our gifts and talents, identify where to put them to work and assume the responsibility to be a leader in the church, in the Movement and in the environments.
