| Ultreya is
the monthly gathering of people who have attended a
Cursillo Weekend. Ultreya is a Spanish word which means
"Keep on Going!" or "Onward." The theme for
all Ultreyas is "transforming the world for Christ."
Rather than being Cursillo centered, the Ultreya is
Christ centered and concentrates on Jesus working within
each of us to bring the world to Him.
Almighty and everlasting God, who fulfilled the
promises of Easter by sending us your Holy Spirit and
opening to every race and nation the way of life
eternal, keep us in the unity of your Spirit, that every
tongue may tell of your glory; through Jesus Christ our
Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and forever. Amen
