​"You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people's feet."

Cursillo Weekends and their Rectors and Rectoras in the Diocese of Oakland, California

Where it all began in 1972 at the Old St. Mary’s Church, Oakland, California. In the early and mid-80’s Mt. Mary Immaculate, Lafayette,  California was the site of Cursillo weekends. In the late 80’s & early 90’s, Cursillo weekends were held at the Salesian High School, Richmond,  California. Since 1995, St. Anthony Claret, Clayton, California, was the site of Cursillo weekends. In 2008, the Cursillo weekends were held at Angela Retreat Center.
