Cursillo
The Cursillo Movement is both a movement and a method. The purpose of the movement is to create small groups of Christians that will evangelize their environments with the gospel spirit. The purpose of the method is to help people live fundamental Christian truths by committing themselves to the spiritual aids the church offers in order to grow in holiness, formation and evangelization.

Faith Alive
You don't have to leave home for this extraordinary parish-wide experience with programs for adults, teens and children, bringing fresh focus to our vows of Baptism and Confirmation. This special weekend event is held in your own church, with neighborhood groups meeting Saturday morning in the homes of parishioners.
Center for Today's Pilgrim
The Reverend Amanda May's Center for Today's Pilgrim recently opened in Point Loma near All Souls' Episcopal Church. A retreat center nestled in a quiet neighborhood, the center offers retreats on a variety of topics, including: "Spirituality," "The Christian Life," "On Pilgrimage," "The Church Year," "Saints & Martyrs" and "Exploring the Scriptures."

A beautiful, sand labyrinth decorated with pieces of colored glass adorns the garden. The center contains a sign that simply says, "Beloved." This is one of the many meditative tools available at |
the center; May also facilitates small group discussions, lectures, guided imagery, movies, art presentations, music and more.
Workshops are typically half-day or full-day sessions whereas retreats are generally one evening plus one full day, but can be longer. May offers off-site workshops and retreats as well. May has served the Episcopal Diocese of San Diego for almost fifteen years. |

Ocean breezes blow gently on this oasis and May's open-heartedness warms the experience of everyone who crosses the threshold.
