Spiritual direction/companion offers guidance for deepening one’s relationship with God, helping individuals become more aware of God’s presence in their lives. In the midst of our busy routines, it can be challenging to notice God’s activity, yet at our core, many of us yearn for a more conscious connection with His love and presence.
Through spiritual direction/companion, individuals are invited to explore the question, “Where is God in my life?” with the support of a compassionate listener who encourages focus on one’s experience of God.

Any life aspect can be brought into this relationship, including: faith and values, prayer life, relationship, major life decisions, joys and sorrows, fears, life transitions.

A spiritual director/companion is trained in listening, spiritual formation, and discernment to support someone in nurturing their spiritual journey. Unlike a counselor or advisor, a spiritual director/companion serves as a listener and guide, helping individuals recognize, reflect on, and respond to God’s invitations in their lives. Sessions are confidential and can be one-on-one or in a group setting, typically lasting one hour and held monthly.
