Supporting ministries throughout the Episcopal Diocese of Spokane that bring our world to Christ.
Team and new cursillistas from our Weekend #8, May 2008.
LEADERS NEEDED
We need willing and able cursillistas who will step up and accept leadership positions on our Secretariat (governing Board)! Four members' terms are ending, and the Secretariat will be voting on new members at their August 7th meeting.
What's Required Secretariat members must be Episcopalians in the Diocese of Spokane, and able to attend a Friday evening meeting in Spokane every other month for the duration of their 3-year term. (The schedule and location can be adjusted to meet the needs of members, so if that's an issue, let us know.) Communication between regular meetings is usually by e-mail or telephone.
Make Your Interest Known! Contact Rich Basta, Lay Director, by email or phone (509-465-2932).
WELCOME FROM BISHOP WAGGONER
Dear Friends in Christ:
I welcome the opportunity to commend Cursillo to you. The ministry offered by Cursillo provides spiritually sound ongoing formation in the faith through stronger community and dedicated service in Christ's name.
We in this diocese are fortunate to have Cursillo leaders who are committed to offering this resource to all, and I encourage participation throughout the diocese.
Join the Inland Northwest Episcopal Cursillo Email Announcement List The announcement list is used to send out reminders for Ultreyas, weekends, and other happenings in the community. The list is moderated (that means any message sent to the list has to be approved by a moderator), so it won't fill your email box with spam!

Our ninth Cursillo weekend has been scheduled for October 1-4, 2009 at the Episcopal Church of the Resurrection, Spokane Valley. Nadine Grady has accepted a call to be Lay Rector, and is beginning to form her team.
If you are interested in serving on the weekend team, please let Nadine know. The easiest way is by email. Let her know if you're willing to be called -- otherwise she may not know that you'd like to serve! You'll also need to send in the weekend team application (see link at left), as she'll need the information on it.
It is NOT too early to send in candidate applications! If you've been thinking about sponsoring someone to a weekend, get busy and invite them, and fill out that paperwork. It's a great help when planning the weekend to have some idea how many people will be coming. Also, candidates may need a long lead time to reserve space in their calendars. So get going now! The application form is linked in the left column of this page.
