The cut-off date for applications for the Men’s Weekend is Monday, February 8. Weekend # 183 is scheduled to be held April 15-18. To date, only three men have sent in applications to attend the weekend. We need a minimum of 12 men to participate in order to hold the weekend. Anyone with applications or questions need to contact Andi Zientara, pre-cursillo, at 412-526-8575, or email her at andizi56@verizon.net.
Want to learn more about the Cursillo movement? Then you need to come to Leader’s School from 7:30 t 9 pm on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday nights at the Mt. Nazareth Center. Wayne Fleckenstein is the presider for the evening sessions. The sessions on the 2nd Wednesday of the month are for “newbies” and people who would like to learn to work on teams. The sessions on the 4th Wednesday are regular, leader discussions — catering more to “veteran” Cursillisatas. Contact Wayne by calling 412-678-1723, or email him at fleckenstein@verizon.net.
Once a month, at 10 am the third Saturday of the month, if Jeff Glace (jeffglace@netscape.net) isn’t available, Clyde Werger is teaching a section studying the New American Catechism – one chapter at a time. You can contact Clyde by calling 412-548-0999 or emailing him at cawerger@gmail.com.
Attention Coordinators, we are looking for someone who has technical experience, probably retired and spends time at home in front of the computer, to take over sending out prayer requests by email and call those who don’t have email. The prayer requests generally come in several times a day each day and should be posted quickly after they are received. If you have that skill and a desire to see that prayer requests are sent out to our Cursillo members in a timely fashion, please call Clyde to discuss this in more detail.
The time is arriving quickly when our own Rob Fleckenstein, son of Wayne and Mary Fleckenstein, will be ordained at St. Paul Cathedral. The ordination will begin at 10 am Saturday, June 26th, with a reception following. Rob will celebrate his first Mass at 3 pm Sunday, June 27th, at Incarnation of the Lord Church on Observatory Hill.
In the Works . . .
. . . The National Encounter in Kansas City, KS, will be held July 29, 30 and 31.
. . . With this being the “Year of the Priests”, plans are being made to hold a special Holy Hour for Priests on one upcoming Wednesday evening.
. . . Plans also are in the making to schedule a special Mass for deceased members of Cursillo.
