“
Faith is not transmitted through slogans, but through a life touched by Christ.”
The Cursillo does not begin when we talk about God, but when we allow God to transform us. Ask yourself then: does my life make Christ visible or does it only talk about Him? Cursillista, the world does not need more religious speeches, but more credible witnesses.
“Evangelizing is not convincing, it is loving until the other discovers that God was already waiting for him.”
The Cursillista does not go out to win ideological battles, but to build bridges of friendship. Review your attitudes: do you accompany processes or impose answers? The mission is played out in closeness, not in pressure.
“The lay person is mission where he lives; not when he goes to church, but when the church goes with him.”
Here is condensed a central insight of the MCC: environments are the theological place of mission. This phrase shakes up our daily life: work, family, social commitment. Are you a Christian only at certain times of the day or a disciple at all times?
“A Christian without community runs the risk of being alone with himself.”
Cursillo does not end at the weekend; a shared journey begins there. Cursillista, rediscover the value of the group and the Ultreya as spaces of truth, fraternal correction, and growth. Faith weakens when lived in isolation.
“The Church is not renewed by changing structures, but by renewing hearts open to the Spirit.”
All authentic reform comes from within. Cursillista, do you wait for the Church to change, or are you willing to let yourself be changed? You are always part of the solution, never a critical spectator.
“Never tire of getting tired.”
Free yourself from a comfortable faith and place yourself in the logic of the Gospel. Getting tired is a sign that you are walking, that you are loving, that you are serving. The danger is not in fatigue, but in giving up. Cursillista, you are called to persevere, even when the mission wears you down, trusting that God acts precisely in your faithful daily commitment. Never tire of tiring yourself means continuing to bet on the Kingdom without seeking security, relying on grace and not on your own strength.
