The Episcopal Cursillo Leaders Workshop is not for everyone who has attended a Cursillo Weekend, but rather for leaders in the movement who consider the Cursillo Movement their primary apostolic ministry. It is important that selected individuals not only attend the workshop, but be willing to return to their community and share the information they have received in a positive and productive manner and encourage other leaders to attend an ECLW.

The purpose of the ECLW is four-fold:

1. To deepen the commitment to Christ and the living of a life in Christ among the Cursillo leaders in the country.
2. To clarify the purpose and method of the Cursillo Movement, especially the Post-Cursillo and the development of a team of leaders.
3. To give leaders in the movement a clear understanding of their roles and the methods they have at their disposal to make the Cursillo Movement an effective instrument in the work of the Church and the restoration of all things in Christ.
4. To help the leadership of Diocesan Cursillo Movements deal with problems they may have and assist them in finding ways to make their respective movements more effective.
