What is Spiritual Direction?

Spiritual direction is the ministry of listening, discernment, and prayer in a confidential and safe setting where one can explore questions in spiritual life.

Spiritual direction offers a way to be more attentive to God’s presence and action in one’s life. It is an opportunity to facilitate the growth of one’s relationship with God and to help live life as a follower of Christ.

Who is a Spiritual Director?

The role of a spiritual director is to listen and help a person discern the presence and work of God’s Spirit in their lives. A spiritual director acknowledges that the Holy Spirit, the Advocate or Counselor, is the real director. Thus, the spiritual director is both a prayerful companion and a co-listener for God’s movement and invitations in the story of the directee’s life.
