Episcopal Diocese of Arizona Convention
Friday October 16 & Saturday October 17 2015
Sheraton Crescent Hotel, Phoenix, AZ

 

Arizona Episcopal Cursillo will be sponsoring an information table at the Diocese Convention and needs your support. Convention hours on Friday, October 16, 2015 are 9:00 AM to 6:30 PM and on Saturday October 17, 2015 are 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. We need your help in setting up and taking the table each day as well as staffing the table during all Convention hours. We are looking for Cursillistas who can commit to at least a two hour slot to help staff the table. Please email Steve Cifone at  stcfn456@aol.com and let us know what time you would be available. We will be showing a computer slide show of our Spring Weekend, providing Cursillo information as well as greeting fellow Cursillistas known and unknown. The Convention is always an excellent opportunity to meet and gain information from Cursillistas new to our Diocese as well as those who have not been very active and make them feel welcome.

 

 
A second way for you to support our Arizona Episcopal Cursillo Convention table is by making a donation to help defray the cost of the table. The cost to our Cursillo Community for the table is $120.00. If you wish to help support this effort, please make your check payable to Arizona Episcopal Cursillo. Your support will be deeply appreciated!
 
One last note, If you are a Delegate to Convention, Clergy or Lay, please consider wearing your Cursillo Cross during Convention. Through the wearing of your Cursillo Cross you may have an opportunity to meet Cursillistas new to our Diocese or who have not been active as well as be given an opportunity to share your story and journey not only as a Cursillista but as a Christian as well.

Remember: Make a Friend. Be a Friend. Bring that Friend to Christ.
