Cape Breton East Richmond Cursillo 26 February 2015 Message from Lay Director Hello, my friends. As I write this we are well into our new year and our season of winter, as has been well attested by the many storms we've had recently. As Cursillistas, we have so very much to be thankful for in our lives. We are able to live each day freely, with Our Lord Jesus by our side. As this year unfolds, I pray that He will bless each one of you abundantly, that He will continue to fill your heart and soul with His Graces. This is also the beginning of a new year for Cursillo, a year of hope that we will all keep this special gift of Cursillo close to our hearts, that each of us will continue to provide the support needed so that we can grow stronger as a movement, as a community. A great way to make this happen is to support the two main tools of Cursillo, our Group Reunion and our Ultreya. It is here where we will grow, in our community, as followers, as friends of Jesus. I invite all of you to come to our celebration, our Ultreya. Renew old friendships, make new friends, be a part of the joy of Cursillo, that is, Christ within us. Hope to see you there. DeColores/God Bless. Rick Richmond County has been and still is a huge part of our Cursillo here in Cape Breton. It's been three years since the last Ultreya was held in Richmond Co. However, that will all change as we are planning to have an Ultreya at the Parish Center in West Arichat. The date is set for Tuesday, May 12th, beginning at 7 o'clock in the evening. Mark your calendars; we hope to see a great turnout as we support our Cursillo friends in Richmond County.

This was one day before the seventh anniversary of his death. Let us all pray that that this gentle spirit, our founder who is already a Saint in our eyes, will be canonized into the Sainthood of the Church that he so loved.
