Volume XI June 1999

A Newsletter for the Cursillo Community
of the
Diocese of Newark

Brainstorming Session:

These are some of the thoughts that came out of April's Servant Community Meeting. We are looking for feedback.

  1. Weekend Activities:
    • Extending personal invitations to all congregations to attend closing service.
    • Have a "community" activity before closing: ie. a sing-a-long during the waiting time before weekenders arrive.
    • Help to set up the closing service
    • Help with the talk support system
    • Piety Eucharist/prayer vigil
  2. Recommend that the 4th day community plug into this year's Evangelsim Conference (October 22-23) rather than have our own weekend.
  3. Establishment of congregational liasions.
  4. Target particular parishes for Speaker's Bureau or Cursillo clergy and layperson visitation.
  5. Research/develp Cursillo info packet.
  6. Start planning convention booth early
  7. A prayer network
