What is Ultreya? "Ultreya" is a Spanish word, derived from the original Latin, meaning Onward! It was in common use by pilgrims to greet and to encourage one another along the way. This word is now used by the Cursillo community to signify the meeting which is held after a Cursillo weekend. This meeting may be between Cursillistas from one or several Diocese. The Ultreya gathers together groups from a particular Diocese, or wider areas, and provides continuity by contributing to the maintenance of the Cursillo spirit and by revealing the reality of the living Church. In a climate of friendship, members share their life experiences based on the three tenets of Cursillo life: i.e.: Prayer, Study and Action, or based on a passage from Scripture. This sharing can be contemplative in nature or may deal with an evangelising experience. This sharing from real-life experiences serves as examples to all of us of the challenge which Jesus lays before His followers: "Go and do likewise". Ultreya starts at 7.30pm, and finishes at about 9.30pm (except where otherwise indicated) followed by tea and coffee for any one who would like to stay. Ultreya dates and places are subject to alteration. Please check before you travel. Maps show approximate location only. |
