It is simply a method through which one’s spirituality may be developed, lived and shared in any area of human endeavor where there are Christians willing to dedicate their lives to God in an ongoing manner. TRES DIAS is an ecumenical movement that was formulated as a method for experiencing a powerful, personal renewal and a living understanding of God’s basic Christian truths. |

Tres Dias traces its ancestry through Cursillo.
Cursillo had its beginnings amid the turmoil and destruction of civil warfare and of the Second World War, which left Spain with empty churches and a sense of aimlessness and diminished dreams. Late in the 1940's, a sense of revival was stirring within the Roman Catholic Church. Small groups of friends in various Catholic action groups began to share their faith regularly to help one another. Pilgrimages were organized whereby men and women could rededicate their lives toward Christian ideals. Bishop Juan Hervas, who was active in action groups and renewal activities with the men on the island of Majorca, and Eduardo Bonin, who was involved with organizing pilgrimages, met through these sharing groups. They began to see how the church could benefit and the lives of people could be changed through studying and sharing their lives in Christ. |
