Study

As Cursillistas, we are taught that our spiritual growth relies on Piety, Study, and Action. This page is to help us with the Study aspect of our Catholic Faith, and to help us live out our faith in evangelizing others.  It includes several videos chosen, in no particular order, that you might find helpful.  We cannot effectively evangelize others if we do not know our Catholic faith.  And, we can study our Catholic faith all our lives and never know it all.  As the old Latin phrase goes, Nemo dat quod non habet. (We cannot give what we do not have.)

(Tip: If you hover your mouse on the bottom right side of a video while it’s playing, you can make it full-screen, or go to YouTube to watch it.)

If we could actually see everything that is going on at Mass, this would be an outstanding depiction of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass!
