for the speaker that you wish to

pray for.

The guide will then escort you to

the cover chapel. You may wish

to bring your rosary, prayer

books, a Bible or any form of

spiritual aid to assist you.

Your prayers and palanca are

needed and are an integral part

of the success of the weekend.

An important part of every

Cursillo weekend is the prayers

and support you offer in the

cover chapel for all those team

members who will be speaking

during the weekend.

If you would like to help the

team in this way, please arrive

at least 15 minutes before the

talk is scheduled. Please meet

in the kitchen and listen for the

guide to announce cover chapel

Palanca is gifts of love, sacrifices and prayers that are offered up for the spiritual success of the weekend.

ALL PALANCA SHOULD BE RECEIVED BY 12 NOON

ON FRIDAY AND SATURDAY!

(NO PALANCA IS DISTRIBUTED ON SUNDAY.)

Page 3 J U L Y 2 0 1 0

As we all know, the Men’s Weekend is fast approaching. I am sure that many of you have al-

ready started your Palanca. Some of you are wondering and looking for some new ways to do

Palanca and be more involved in the weekend. I have some suggestions!

Prayer of course is always great... but how about using your artistic skills to color table nap-

kins! We need a lot of them for Friday, Saturday and Sunday (that’s eight meals, about thirty

or so place settings) more or less about 250 napkins! What a great project for a group reunion

or for individual Palanca. I’m not suggesting that any one group or person do them all, but… we

need 250 napkins!

Also, please consider helping in the kitchen. What a great time we have and a great community

builder. Not to mention great Palanca!

And here is the big one... The absolute best way to support the weekend (next to prayer

of course) is helping with the set up and tear down. What makes it so special this year, you

may ask? Well, let me explain. As some of you know, on April 20th I had neck surgery. I am

not able, allowed or capable of doing my duties as Cursillo Chair for this Men’s weekend. So I

am asking for your help in setting up and taking down the facility. I need people to set up cots,

put boxes in the rooms and in general, unload and load the truck. For instance, I will need help

on Saturday setting up Our Lady for the evening meal, and would really appreciate your help

throughout the entire weekend.

I will be there on the weekend the whole time, and I will be able to

answer questions and do small things, but I will need help with the

lifting and moving.

Please consider some part of this weekend for your Palanca…

Remember God is counting on us.

Thank you,

Thom GodwardThom GodwardThom GodwardThom Godward

As a sponsor, your responsibilities before, during and after the Cursillo weekend are as follows:As a sponsor, your responsibilities before, during and after the Cursillo weekend are as follows:As a sponsor, your responsibilities before, during and after the Cursillo weekend are as follows:As a sponsor, your responsibilities before, during and after the Cursillo weekend are as follows:

• Explain the Cursillo as a short course in Christianity, and also explain the expectations of the

Fourth Day.

• Bring your candidate to your Group Reunion or to Ultreya prior to the weekend.

• Explain to your candidate that the $75 donation is a suggested amount and should not be a

deterrent.

• Complete the application with your candidate — do not hand the application to your candidate

to fill out and mail in. Complete the Sponsor Confidential Sheet on your own. Make sure to get

your Parish Representative’s signature, as well as the Priest’s signature. If at all possible, fill

out both spouse applications simultaneously for all married candidates.

• Provide transportation for your candidate to and from the Cursillo weekend. This is very im-

portant, as your candidate will be tired at the end of his/her weekend. NOTE: If you are on

the team and sponsoring a candidate, arrange for someone to drive your candidate to and from

the weekend.

• Avail yourself to your candidate’s family for help with shopping, babysitting, meals, transporta-

tion to church, or any other personal needs. If your candidate has few or no outside needs, be

sure to come to the Cursillo weekend facility and help out.

• If your candidate’s spouse is not Catholic, it is your responsibility to invite him or her to par-

ticipate in all community activities surrounding the weekend.

• After the weekend, accompany your candidate to the Post-Cursillo seminar and to Ultreya.

• Be available to answer any and all questions regarding the Cursillo Movement that your candi-

date may have.

• Help your candidate utilize the Cursillo tools to persevere in his or her environment.
