Please join us for Ultreya on Saturday, May 27. "Ultreya" is an old Spanish word meaning "hang in there," "keep on going," used by pilgrims on the road, and an appropriate greeting for us as we encourage each other on our Christian journey. Everyone in the parish is welcome-those who have attended a Cursillo weekend and those who are curious or think they might be interested in attending.
We will get together at 3:00 pm. Bring snacks to share. If you play a musical instrument, bring that and help us sing a song or two as we gather.
We will break into small prayer groups to talk about our piety, study, and action in the past few weeks.
One of our leaders will offer a lay witness, describing their personal relationship with Jesus and giving a specific example of how that relationship has inspired a recent interaction with people in their lives. Others will have the opportunity to respond, and then Pastor Julie will help us pull together our thoughts and relate them to scripture.
In closing we will talk about the upcoming Cursillo Weekend, July 13-16. Ideally we will sing a few more songs, snack, and visit. Then those who want to attend the 5:00 pm Eucharist can do so.
If you have questions, you can contact Carol Williams (our Cursillo parish representative) by email (
Carol.Williams@mindspring.com) or by phone (480-966-7779).
