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.
