Retreats can take us into liminal space, though only if we avoid bringing our ‘business as usual’ mindset with us and dragging all our baggage along.
To really retreat we must be willing to be stripped of much, or all of what makes me, me.
Retreats take us away from our everyday world and break our addiction to it.
Without some humility, vulnerability, and openness there is no reason to take a retreat at all.
We are invited into a deep transformative conversation, there on the threshold between who we are and who we can become, if we are willing to let go of what holds us back.

Contemplative Outreach of Colorado seeks to preserve and expand a contemplative way of life in service to the world, calling forth the inner monastic within each of us so that ordinary life becomes informed by extraordinary love.
Contemplative Outreach of Colorado (COC) has been a non-profit organization since 1984 and is overseen by a Board of Directors.
Our primary purpose is to introduce people to contemplative prayer and to provide a support system to sustain their spiritual development
through workshops, retreats, and other educational programs.
There are two branches of this non-profit corporation.
