Retreats
A quarterly retreat is held (for a half day) at various Colorado Springs sites. These gatherings are open to the general public and are led by Soul-Link board members and/or invited guest facilitators. The retreats consist of presentation, quiet time for reflection, small and large group discussions. The purpose of the retreat is to introduce to each other, people of like mind and heart, and to enhance their awareness of the spiritual dimension of their lives.

Community Service
Because spirituality is not a realm isolated from the reality of people, places and events, and because it implies sensitivity to our relatedness with all people, Soul-Link will coordinate volunteer service opportunities in cooperation with local agencies and organizations. e.g. Habitat for Humanity, Soup Kitchen, Tutoring, Care-giving in local nursing homes and hospitals. There are also occasional service opportunities available on an "as needed" basis.

Social Activities
Because the formation of and belonging to a community are important aspects of the spiritual journey, various activities are organized around specific interests. On a monthly basis, Soul-Link participants are invited to gather for companionship and informal interaction in the context of a potluck meal followed by discussion. Other activities include hikes on area trails, and film and book discussion groups. . (See the Soul-Link Calendar for updated information.)

Educational Offerings
In order to further our grasp of the spiritual reality that is our common bond, Soul-Link participants are offered educational opportunities having to do with the health of mind, body, and spirit. These offerings are led by invited presenters and others who have expertise in pertinent areas.

Newsletters/Mailings
A quarterly newsletter and other regular mailings are sent to all Soul-Link participants. The purpose of the communication is three-fold: To convey information about upcoming activities, to offer articles of interest for reflection, and to provide periodic updates regarding future plans and activities for Soul-Link. Please see the Newsletters webpage for the current newsletter.

Leading with Soul
The pace of our lives and the weight of the responsibilities we assume is such that many of us lose touch with our spiritual moorings - a sense of direction, meaning, unity/community, and identity. Because the stresses related to employment are a major contributor to our spiritual malaise, it is crucial that the workplace be one where our spirits are nourished rather than depleted. Soul-Link offers businesses and organizations the opportunity to have a unique experience that awakens the spirit within. Through customized programs involving a combination of presentations, readings, experiential exercises, targeted inquiry using various assessment instruments, reflection, and discussion, participants will discover ways to function at work which bring life to them and their colleagues.
