Silence…Solitude…Simplicity…Service

Contemplative Outreach San Antonio (COSA) is a communion of small prayer communities and individuals who daily practice Centering Prayer.

COSA’s purpose is to nurture the spiritual growth of Centering Prayer participants in the San Antonio/Hill Country community, to provide workshops in the method of Centering Prayer and Lectio Divina, and to offer retreats and resources to deepen our relationship with God.

Contemplative Outreach San Antonio is a local chapter of Contemplative Outreach, a worldwide spiritual network of individuals and faith communities committed to living the contemplative dimension of the Gospel in everyday life through the practice of Centering Prayer.
