Re: The Fundamental Ideas of the Cursillo Movement (FICM)(Purpose)

Article:
The Cursillo has four major building blocks. The "mentality", "essence", "purpose" and "method". I have already posted excerpts from the FICM on the mentality, essence and method. Today I will post an excerpt on the PURPOSE. Later I will do a Summary "in laymen's terms" of what these excerpts mean to us and the changes "proposed" by National.





Purpose


106..Since it is a movement of the Church, the Cursillo Movement has the same apostolic purpose as the Church herself. And the Church, as Pope Paul VI told us, exists to evangelize.


111..In the definition of the Cursillo Movement, its purpose is expressed thus: "The Cursillo Movement is a movement of the Church which by the means of its own method makes it possible for people to live what is fundamental for being a Christian, and to live it together; It helps people discover and fulfill their personal vocations, and it promotes the creation of core groups of Christians who leaven their environments with the Gospel.





This one is a little easier to understand!!


God Bless and DECOLORES!!! Randy
