ANNUAL RETREAT
Historically, two Cursillo weekends had been held in our diocese
each year but more recently the second one has been an Annual
Retreat. This is usually held at The Pleasaunce in Overstrand on a
Friday and Saturday.
The retreat offers an opportunity for Cursillistas to come away from
their busy lives to rest, relax, share worship and fellowship, and
take time to be with God.
