The practical application of Christian Science is as much our mission today as it was under Cap and Marianne Andrew’s leadership over 60 years ago. Whether it’s at the A/U Ranches Youth, Adult & Family Programs, 100 Elk Outdoor Center or DiscoveryBound's Outreach events, the National Leadership Council or the Compass program for high school teens, we seek to provide inspiring recreational, leadership, service, educational and social activities for Christian Scientists and their friends, to nurture healing and a sense of community, in an atmosphere conducive to practical reliance on Christian Science.
Adventure Unlimited, headquartered in Greenwood Village, CO (Denver), supports the administrative functions for the A/U Ranches and DiscoveryBound.
The A/U Ranches, located in Buena Vista, CO, is a cornerstone of our programming. The supportive and loving atmosphere cultivates confidence and develops moral courage for Christian Science youth, adults, families and their friends of all faiths.
The 100 Elk Outdoor Center, a public program of the A/U Ranches, provides outdoor education and character development programs for schools and groups in the fall and spring. We offer exceptional ways to enjoy the wonder of Colorado’s Collegiate Peaks and the Arkansas River valley while expanding each participant’s sense of self, community and the environment.
DiscoveryBound serves Christian Scientists and the greater community through fellowship in a healing and inspiring atmosphere, which encourages growth in an understanding of Christian Science and service to the world. We are building bridges among Christian Scientists of all ages across the United States and beyond.
Mission: "Opening Windows to God"
