ULTREYA HASN'T BEEN THE SAME WITHOUT YOU
Was it something we said? Was it something we did? Please let us know; it
wasn’t intentional. Ultreya hasn't been the same without you. Sometimes
you may think, “I won't get anything out of Ultreya, so I just won't go.” But
have you stopped to think what you might bring to another person with your
presence? Each of us brings something unique to Ultreya when we come. It
may be your smile, your echo, your private word with another, your particular
bit of sharing in the floating group reunion, your neediness, or a million other
things. Each of us is one of a kind; each of us God's special handiwork, and
what we take to Ultreya and to the world no one else can bring. We miss you,
come back.
Perhaps you’ve made excuses for not going to Ultreya, such as “I’m too tired
from the job, or from working in the yard or house” or “I really didn't want to
miss that special TV program.” But stop to think: on that afternoon you were
“too tired,” your smile and hug might have lifted up someone who was about
to lose a job. On the afternoon of that special TV program, your words
might have made a big difference to someone feeling alone from a death in
the family or feeling separated from everyone.
We still pray together, learn from witness speakers, and share our life
journeys during our discussion groups. We still support each other (as only
Cursillistas can), enjoy each others’ company, and learn from each other.
Ultreya helps us feel more united with our larger Cursillo community. Come
back. We miss you.
Every month each of us tries to invite someone back to Ultreya. If you made
the invitation, we hope it was successful. If not, we hope you'll try again. If
you were the recipient of an invitation, know that you are blessed and loved
and don’t just consider coming back...do it! The Ultreya really hasn't been the
same without you.
UNLESS OTHERWISE POSTED, OUR ULTREYAS ARE NORMALLY
HELD ON THE FIRST SUNDAY OF EACH MONTH AT 2 PM AT 33RD
STREET CHAPEL ON FORT HOOD.
May The Love & Peace Of
Our Lord, Jesus Christ,
Be With You Always
