>  
> Lou Lysonki presented the first rollo on “The Essence and Purpose of Cursillo.”  Notable quotes from her talk:
> “We must baptize the Jungle.” ��  There are Far Aways all around us, so we must know our environments to help bring them to Christ through friendship.
> “Friendship flips the switch” and we must be patient and persistent in our authentic friendships.
> “Transformation happens in God’s Time” and He “sneaks in with grace.”
> “Cursillo is a Calling” and apostolate, so we must take that calling seriously and live our lives accordingly.
>  
> Fr. Alan Tremblay presented the second rollo on “Reconciliation,” not as a sacrament, but as the expanded definition means to restore friendships/relationships that have perhaps fallen away.  
> Notable quotes:
> “God rewrites the meaning of our lives,” our history, when we restore friendships and He can redefine the purpose of our lives if we revisit past hurts or revisit our past lives for renewal/reconciliation
> In our 4th Day, we are “ambassadors for Christ…and must be reconciled with God” (2 Cor.)
> God can make all things new! ��  Look at St. Paul’s life
>  
> Matt McSorley presented the third rollo on The Pre-Cursillo.  Notable quotes:
> Don’t be timid to invite people to Cursillo, but discern carefully whom you should invite.  He quoted E. Bonnin a lot in this rollo.
> A person must have sufficient capacity/personality to encounter self.  Self-reflection is vital before he/she can encounter Jesus or others.
> A person should be able to influence his/her environments
> Don’t make friends just to get them to a Cursillo- not authentic friendship
> We want them to encounter God’s love to bring out the best in them
> Tell the truth through gestures, not just words- be present to them and listen!!
> Take it to prayer first if this is a person you should invite to Cursillo.
>  
> And finally, Bridget (last name?) presented on the Fourth Day.
> Notable quotes:
> Reach out to inactive Cursillistas through group reunion and Ultreya
> We need to continue to “enrich our soil” so that we can be fruitful for others
> Authentic vs superficial friendships needed- authentic continues in the 4th Day, Superficial does not
> School of Leaders in the backbone of the Movement
> I thought to summarize here instead of taking a lot of time next week.  If Rob and Len have something to add, please do so.  We can discuss a bit next week, if you have questions.
>  
> Have a great week- some sun and rain…
> De Colores.
