Our Annual Men’s Cursillo Christmas Mass and Dinner took place on December 8, 2025, at Thomas Berry Place in Jamaica Estates, NY, with thirty-six men enjoying this special event! Msgr. Joe Calise, once again, accepted our invitation to celebrate mass. No doubt, it was a wonderful Liturgy as Joe loves being a part of the Men’s Cursillo.
Matthew Bellas (Men’s Cursillo #199) joined us this year, with guitar in hand, to accompany us during the mass in song. Also joining in (with his beautiful baritone voice) was Mario Cannariato. Matthew also sang for us after dinner.
After Mass, we had a hearty dinner, wonderful table sharing, an array of desserts and lots of laughs and picture taking! Through the generosity of the men present, we collected $910 to supplement cost for candidates in need on Cursillo weekends.
Thank you all! And a special shout out to Tommy Leavens (one of our Spiritual Team guys who works there) for overseeing the event, making sure everything was top-shelf—and that it sure was.
