Secretariat

The Cursillo Movement is not an organization, but uses certain organizational elements in order to function and to achieve its purpose. The purpose or goal of the Cursillo Movement is to Christianize Environments. In order to have this effect on environments, the Cursillo strives to provide understanding and conviction to individuals about what is necessary for being a Christian, and to strengthen individuals so they may live out that conviction, supported by a Christian Community.

The work of the Cursillo in a diocese requires coordination by a small group of clergy and lay men and women called the Secretariat. A typical Secretariat consists of the Lay President, the Spiritual Director, the Treasurer, and the chairpersons of the Precursillo, Cursillo, Postcursillo Committees and the chairpersons of the Leaders School and Ultreya Subcommittees.

The Secretariat is responsible for all aspects of the Cursillo, although it delegates work to the various committees. The Secretariat oversees and reviews the work of the committees.
