Every year in Ely the Bishop (or, at the moment the Acting Bishop), holds a study day for clergy and others in ministry across the diocese. This year’s study day was organised by the Bishop’s Advisor for Spirituality, Canon James Shakespeare – who is himself a Cursillista and an enthusiastic supporter of the movement. Not only was the Reverend Olivia Coles (Spiritual Director for Ely Cursillo) invited to bring along a display explaining something of what we are about, but James gave Cursillo a ringing endorsement in his opening remarks to the conference.
Other Cursillistas were on hand to chat with anyone who came along, and there was a steady stream of interested people. Ultreya!
