III. March Minutes: Minutes had been corrected with additions and corrections
through email. Deacon Jones made the motion to accept minutes, seconded
by John Frost. Voted and approved.
IV. Old Business:
A. Ultreya: has been moved to 3pm. Suggested was made by Phyllis that because several people use
their working email addresses it would be better to put Ultreya announcement in the middle of the week-
Wednesday. John said he would do that and if he had time. He would send it again on Friday of the same
week.
B. Elections-Absentee voting-will be a special provision done by the board in case by case bases.
C. Parish Representative-After a lengthy discussion it was decided the the Pre-Cursillo Coordinator
would be the one to contact the Parish Representatives, These would be the parish representatives that
have been approved by the Lay Director. The primary duty will be to insure that the announcements of
Cursillo events get in their prospective church bulletin. She will also contact them if they had any issues
regarding transportation for candidates attending weekends from their parish. Several names were
mentioned for all parishes. Shirley will contact them and see if they would be a parish representative. All
of this will help the Pre-Cursillo coordinator to have a point of contact in each parish. Board Members
have already received copy of parish representative duties and will be part of the By-Laws and a copy
will be on record in the board minutes.
V. Board Member Reports:
A. Lay Director: Ask board for names to be prayed over for future weekends. Names were given.
Phyllis suggested keeping the original running list and adding the recent names to it. BOD agreed.

John on these duties. Men’s Clean-Up: Orie and possibly Barb also.
B. Assistant Lay Director: Absent
C. Secretary: Gave out candidate list for Women’s weekend to be posted on the web site. I will email
John the team members. Has a concern of not having current information on roster. She believes that as
we concentrate on getting new candidates for the weekend, we lack communication with previous
cursillistas, except when we call for prayer wheel or donations. She wants to work with John in making
our communication better and trying to keep in touch with them. She also has offer two $25.00 gift
certificates for the cursillita that will bring the most cursillistas that did not attend our picnic last year to
this year’s picnic. Ties will be broken by picking the highest card in a deck.
D. Financial Secretary: All the funds are in for the women’s weekend. Nothing yet from the Men.

Nyrma has supply list with items listed needed to be bought. Have no batteries. Phyllis stated that the
sternos should not be stored at Elk because of safety issues. At the end of the weekend, it should be
given to the Assistant Lay Director with the tops on them for proper storage. Cynthia expressed that Sam’
s will not accepted a check from Heart of Texas Cursillo. Phyllis will get the cash and buy the supplies
needed. Cynthia will coordinate with Nyrma for the cash for supplies. Nyrma has supply list.
