Postcursillo), and should be practiced in its entirety. Palanca gives witness to the solidarity of the members of the Church. It is especially important during the Precursillo, the spiritual preparation for the Cursillo; therefore, both the Team and the outside community should include a Palanca campaign. Palanca is the actual prayers, sacrifices, and works of mercy. A note on a piece of paper or a greeting card does not constitute Palanca. A Palanca letter is one that is sent to the candidates and team, informing them of the prayers and sacrifices that one is offering to God on their behalf. A letter may be sent explaining what type of Palanca is being offered, but the letter is NOT the Palanca. The actual Palanca is the action – intercessory prayer, sacrifice, or works of mercy – and it can be done without writing a letter. [Leaders’ Manual, p. 117]
