Cursillo Christmas Ultreya to be held today Wednesday, December 5th, 7:00pm - 9:00pm at St. Thomas Indian Mission Garces Hall on the California side of the river (by Paradise Casino). Remember our visit from Santa Claus and that children are welcome.The event is in the parish Hall, Garces Hall, to the back of the church. The grounds around the church are not well lit so using a flashlight for safety purposes would be a good idea. Please do not roam the property.Also, parking is allowed only in the lower parking lot and not on the driveway alongside of the church and hall buildings. The driveway may be used for dropping off people who cannot make the long trip from the parking lot. The Hall is not handicap accessible. Thank you for your assistance in this matter.As we begin the time of Advent, it would be great to come together and celebrate the season.We hope to see you all there. Snacks will be served - bring one if you'd like.Yuma Pre Cursillo Thursdays:

Please continue to pray for the all Cursillistas who are well into their 4 th day and for the outstanding efforts of the team and sponsors for continued success of our community. I offer the following, St Augustine, prayer to cursillos both past and future.
“Look on us lord, and let all the darkness of our souls disappear before the beams of your brightness. Fill us with your holy love, and open to us the treasures of your wisdom. We seek your face, turn your face to us and show us your glory. Then our longing will be satisfied and our peace will be complete.”
The 4th day- All days following the 3-day retreat to live the Cursillo method of the TRIPOD!
The Fourth Day “Living the dream” - this is the Cursillistas living in Christ following the 3 day Cursillo retreat. This space is reserved for the entire Diocese Cursillo community to share your “Living the dream” experience, where has cursillo led you! Send “DREAMS” to yesectreasurer@gmail.comDid You Know? In 1944, the Group reunion and the Cursillo already existed, but it wasn’t until 1949 that the Ultreya was born. The Ultreya was a natural development from groups of cursillistas meeting together to give encouragement in the joy of being united in the same pilgrimage. By 1951 it had become part of the movement. Soon after, the School of Professors was established, now known as the “School of Leaders”.
