Spirituality
Spirituality is about contacting and enlarging the inner life, which all of us have within, and allowing the living flame of the inner presence of God to touch and permeate our daily activities.
It can be nurtured through encountering the beauty of the landscape surrounding us, through reading, music, relaxation, silence and quiet days, or retreats, which are times set apart, often led by an experienced Spiritual Director.

Cursillo
Cursillo is a movement of the Church, providing a method by which Christians are empowered to grow through prayer, study and action and enabled to share God’s love with everyone.
Cursillo (pronounced ‘kur-see-yo) is a Spanish word meaning ‘a short course’ (as in an athletic event). It is a method of supporting and encouraging our lives as Christians and is now a worldwide movement.
Cursillo in the Carlisle Diocese began and continues with the blessing of the Diocesan Bishop. The Spiritual Director and Lay Director are both appointed by him.
