Cursillo Diocese of Gary

Cursillo Diocese of Gary A gathering place for people involved or interested in the Cursillo Community in the Diocese of Gary. What is the Cursillo Movement? It is like the sacraments.

This site is intended to connect and celebrate our faith and love of Christ. To explain the Cursillo, which is Spanish for "short course", to someone who has not experienced it is, at best, difficult - not because Cursillo is a secret, but because it is a living experience only fully understood when experienced first hand. Someone can explain them to you, but that only helps the experience. It doe

s not replace the experience. The Cursillo experience is unique to each person because no one can fully explain how God touches a person. Christ, through the Cursillo and through His grace, touches the person who is open to a personal relationship with Him in a special way and the person is never the same after as they were before.

“The Augustinian feast of Alypius and Possidius highlights a distinctive Christian idea: holiness is often communal.”

“Friendship is one of the ways faith matures. Honest conversation, intellectual companionship, shared prayer, and perseverance through suffering all become paths toward God.”

Saints Alypius and Possidius are remembered for the faithful friendship that helped shape Augustine’s path to holiness.

Palanca requested for the National Cursillo Encounter: July 23-26, 2026

What is the Palanca? Palanca is the prayer, sacrifice, and self-giving offered to God for a specific intention—especially for the fruits of a Cursillo (in this case, for the volunteers, the preparation of the National Encounter, and the fruits of the Encounter) and for the people participating in it. In other words, everything that is offered with love (prayer, suffering, small sacrifices, acts of charity) so that God may act in hearts. Palanca is the most important thing, because it is what moves everything. Eduardo Bonnin, Servant of God, said that the most important thing for a Cursillo is the Palanca, “90% Prayer and 10% Preparation,” for the Cursillo is not the work of men, but of God’s grace.
