Cursillo are usually available from both the Diocese and from your
church. Contact your rector to ask about scholarships through the Registrar.
What if I don't have a sponsor?
Your sponsor is an invaluable support person before,
during, and after your Cursillo experience. If you are interested in
attending Cursillo and don't have a sponsor, contact your rector and he
or she will help you find a sponsor.
How do I sign up?- Applications are available from your church office or from
the Diocesan office in Columbia. Call your church secretary or speak to
your rector.
