Annual Conference

by Marie Howard,
Special Events Coordinator

Plans are underway for our Annual Conference to be held in Toronto, Canada at the Don Valley Hotel, September 29th to October 3rd, 2004. It is especially exciting this year as we are celebrating the 20th anniversary of Contemplative Outreach.

Our theme for the overall conference and the Day of Enrichment is “Living Ordinary Life with Extraordinary Love.” The enrichment program begins on Wednesday evening and will feature many of the practices offered by Contemplative Outreach for on-going spiritual growth and support.

We will meet in Clusters and hold the Annual Business Meeting of Contemplative Outreach Ltd. on Friday morning. The coordinators will meet on Friday afternoon. Susan Komis and a committee of coordinators have already begun to plan the meeting.

The Contemplative Outreach community in Toronto is hard at work. Carolyn Gratton, Mary Ellen Carey and Shelley McVea, our local hosts, and their committees have been meeting and reporting in on our monthly conference calls. They are excited to have the conference in their beautiful city and are preparing to make our stay there most comfortable.

This year, Madeline Soo, the International Coordinator for Contemplative Outreach, is a member of the planning committee. We will be highlighting many of the activities of Contemplative Outreach offered throughout the world.

Once again, we extend to you a cordial invitation to be with us for this historic time as we celebrate 20 years of offering to others this wonderful gift we have been given. We will mark this occasion with a very special birthday party for Contemplative Outreach and hear from our elders who have been with Contemplative Outreach from the beginning.

Please mark your calendars now. You won’t want to miss this special time!
