Hi all,

Here's the latest Rooster Review! The May 2021 edition...

If clicking on the link below fails to open the Rooster Review, copy the link on the very bottom and paste it into your browser.  This should take you directly to RR.  I apoligize for the inconvience.  We really are trying to figure out why this isn't working the way it is supposed.

Thank you,

Russell Titone

Hello All,

Here is the February 2022 Rooster Review

 Microsoft Word - The Rooster Review 2022-02 (centralvirginiacursillo.org)

The new Cursillo application was added to the website several months ago but, apparently not everyone got the message or knows how to access it.  If you go to the Files tab, the first file is 'Cursillo Application 2022'.  Click on that file and the application will open up in PDF format which you can then print out.  If for some reason this does not work for you or you can not print the application, contact me and I will mail you a hard copy.

Thank you,

The CVCC met on Sunday evening and after doing an updated analysis on cost, we are lowering the Weekend fee from $295 to $250 for this year.  We will revisit this after the Men's WE in the fall.  Below is a link to the current application.  It still says the cost is $295 but, ignore that for this year.

Thank you,

Russell

Hello Everyone,

Hopefully you have all heard that we are having a Women's Weekend in July.  The dates are July 17 through July 19.  We have a Rectora, we have a team, and we have a venue.  What we don't have are candidates!  The team has been meeting and working hard to prepare for this weekend.  It's time for the rest of us to get busy and get people signed up to attend.

We have all been charged by Jesus to bring the Gospel to the rest of the world, to evangelize.  As Cursillestas our target audience is the people in the pews.  You all know who they are.  They are the people who come to Church but, that is the extent of their involvement.  Cursillo is how we stir them to action by helping them open up to the Holy Spirit.

If you can convince someone to make a weekend, you just may help prevent them from slipping into that ever growing group of people known as "nones".  These are the people who have stopped coming to Church and no longer associate with any form of religion.  Don't forget the gifts you received when you made your weekend.  Those gifts are meant to be shared.

Below is a link to the application.  It still says the cost is $295 but, for this year it has been lowered to $250.  Print out as many as you need or contact me if you need help.

Thank you and DeColores,

Russell (Batfish681@verizon.net)

We need musicians for Ultreyas!  We have had a couple of Ultreyas without any musicians attending and we've done the music acappella.  We do have a lot of enthusiasm and some very nice voices in our community but, they are definitely in the minority.  We need the instruments to help disguise the not so good voices.  If you play any kind of instrument, please come to the Ultreyas and help us make a joyful noise!

There will be a Cursillo for men in Hampton the weekend of June 23-26th. Churches with parishioners who speak Spanish should consider asking men to go to that weekend. That way we would have a start with team members to be on a future weekend. Here's the announcement in Spanish. At the end it mentions the first women's weekend to be held on August 25-28 in Spanish at the same location.

"Movimiento de Cursillos de Cristiandad 23-26 de Junio del 2022, St. Clare of Assisi Retreat Center. Linda Estepa, 757-374-2493, cursillistador@protonmail.com

Quieres crecer en el conocimiento de tu fe católica?  Deseas tener una relacion mas intima con Jesus? Te invitamos a participar en el primer cursillo en español para hombres. 23-26 de Junio del 2022. St. Clare of Assisi Retreat Center, 620 Buckroe Ave., Hampton, VA 23664. Para mas información communicate con Linda Estepa.

El primer cursillo de mujeres sera del 25 al 28 de agosto del 2022."

Hello All,
