Ultreya is a Spanish word meaning “to persevere.” For cursillistas (those who have experienced a Cursillo or similar event), ultreya is also a regular gathering to celebrate and encourage each other to persevere in the Christian walk. LVCCM sponsors several regional ultreyas:

  • Tri-City area (Saginaw, Bay City, Midland)

  • Reed City area

  • Monroe area

  • Warren area

Some rotate among several churches while others remain at the same church month to month. See schedule details below. Most ultreya locations have a link that will display a map.
