Welcome
Contemplative Spiritual Direction & Soul Care
"The focus of spiritual direction is on experience, not on ideas, and specifically religious experience, i.e., any experience to the mysterious other who we call God. Moreover, this experience is not viewed as an isolated event, but as an ongoing expression of the ongoing personal relationship that God has established with each one of us" (William Berry and William Connolly)
Spiritual Direction and soul care is about discovering and learning to sustain a spirituality that brings greater meaning, depth, and sacredness to your life, work, and relationships. It is about learning to nurture your soul, the soul of others, and the soul of this world for the sake of greater healing, substance, and joy.
All of this takes place as we are invited to share our stories and consider our lives in the context of prayerful listening and discernment. I invite you to begin the journey, to be supported and fed in your spiritual growth and the care of your soul.
It is in the knowledge of the genuine conditions of our lives
that we must draw our strength to live and our reasons for living
--Simone de Beauvoir
