Testimonials from Last Year’s Retreat:

“The weekend was an opportunity to re-examine my life and make note of the adjustments that I want to see take place. It was a space where I felt totally part of a family atmosphere that I had missed so much. It felt like coming home.” – Yoshie M. – New York

“I was reminded of how loving, caring, and supportive this community is. It was great having discussions and conversations that challenge me to reflect on my life and where I want to go from here.” – Kyra M. – Pennsylvania

“An encouraging, positive experience. Everyone came with such an open mind and heart that I go away feeling tremendous hope for the future of our movement.”

This weekend is a great chance to relax in a comfortable retreat setting, enjoy the out of doors, and connect around our common principles and values. See our website for more information, including testimonials and photos of past years’ retreats.

About COR (Connecting Our Roots)

COR is an independent, self-funded organization, based on Unification principles.

Our Vision: An authentic community that inspires God!

Our Mission: Create retreats for Unificationist young professionals to gain spiritual nourishment and experience authentic connection in order to comfort God.

COR was started in January of 2015 because we (the Board) wanted to create an experience that could meet the needs of those in the Unificationist community under the age of 40. Our goal is to create retreats where people can build deeper relationships with each other and God, and have an amazing time out in nature. See our “Vision and Mission” page for more details.

WE’RE OFFERING ON-SITE CHILDCARE! COR cares about nourishing young families, and values the presence of young families at our retreats. To make it possible for parents with young children to participate in this retreat, we are offering on-site childcare for children 3 years and younger, and private rooms for families. Parents attending the retreat will be able to participate in all the sessions, while their children enjoy an age appropriate educational and fun program with other young children.

Childcare will be provided by trained and experienced childcare providers. The

main coordinator of the childcare program will be Doris Shirato. Doris worked for many years with Jin-a, and is currently serving as a nanny for the DeGoede family. She will be assisted by several other childcare providers, according to the number of children that enroll in the childcare program. We can accommodate up to 10 families.

To make it possible for young families to attend together, the COR Board has secured donations to be able to provide up to $200 per family to subsidize the cost of the childcare (actual cost is $105-$156 per child for the weekend). With this subsidy, the cost per child will be just $50 per child for 3 days and 2 nights of care and 5 meals.

For any questions about the childcare program, please contact Crescentia DeGoede at cdegoede@unification.org.

TRANSPORTATION COR is not responsible for transportation to and from the retreat. However, we’re happy to help connect participants so they can coordinate carpooling. If you are willing to offer a ride or are looking for a ride, please fill out this form. Responses and contact information can be found here.
