Anyone know what the three workshops for Leaders are about? One at Prairie Ronde, Lake Charles, & Baton Rouge in Jan, Feb and Mar. What is National going to be TEACHING US?

Article:
Some of the things they WANT to change. No more angels, mandatory Co-Ed Ultreyas (no Youth ultreyas), eventually no more Youth Cursillos, No more 4th leaders or 4th day leaders school, making selection of candidates more selective (cream of the crop??), fewer cursillos and fewer candidates (25 max??), changing the ultreya format. Any more that anyone can think of?? Some of these are not in line with the "by the book" cursillo methods, but are they tools that make conversions and make apostles for Christ? I'd like to hear on any or all of these topics. God Bless and DECOLORES!!! Randy

I, personally, have a problem with co-ed ultreyas. I wouldn't feel comfortable being totally open about some of my daily trials and tribulations in front of women. I would imagine that women have things they need to talk about, but can't talk about in front of men. Am I alone in this thinking?

Article:
No you are not and that is one of the reasons that we went from 2 family nights to just 1st wed family night in the Lafayette Ultreya. Many other ultreyas, men and womens have said that the sharing seems to get a little more shallow on a family night. The Breaux Bridge and Carencro Ultreyas have co-ed ultreyas now. Any one from those ultreyas see something different?

No you are not. As a matter of fact I had someone send me a private email that stated that she was involved in a coed ultreya and had to group with 3 men. She was very uncomfortable.

I have not seen a reply to this sting from anyone from a coed ultreya. I am from Baton Rouge, but I did attend an Ultreya in Breaux Bridge. When the time for sharing came, they had the men go to a separate room and then split into spiritual groups. This way, women shared with women (no men in the room) and men shared with men (no women in room). At family night at our Ultreya, when we split up, we split up with men grouping with men and women with women. We are fortunate to have a large room for family nights so we do not get in each other's way.




Just some thoughts. I am personally against coed ultreyas, but they can work. The big problem is when both husband and wife are members of the Ultreya but because of children, both may not be able to make their ultreyas. Still, this is not the worse thing in the world.




Any other thoughts?

My Wife said she would go to Ultreya more often if we could go together, if Ultreya in Lafayette was co-ed.




I have been attending Ultreya consistently for about 2.5 years. We have family nite the first week of every month. My wife has only attended Ultreya with me once.




We all have excuses for not attending Ultreya!
