Cursillo
The mission of the Cursillos in Christianity Movement of the Archdiocese of Detroit is to bring Jesus Christ to others. Through a specifically designed 3-day weekend, people experience a personal encounter with Christ and learn to embrace their true vocation as disciples. The weekend workshops provide the opportunity for people to pray, grow, learn, and share within a Christian community. Cursillo helps equip lay people with the tools, knowledge, and spiritual strength necessary to go out and spread the Good News.
The Archdiocese of Detroit Catholic Cursillo Weekend is held at Maryville Retreat Center*
in Holly. It’s three days of instructive talks, small group discussion, fellowship and worship. In those three days you will encounter Christ like never before.

The Cursillo Movement focuses on continued spiritual growth and sharing
within your faith community. Although we won’t turn anyone away, if you are
