Spiritual direction is a way of meeting with someone - a spiritual director or guide - to share your thoughts and reflections about your faith.

​

You may experience spiritual direction while on retreat.

You may also meet with a spiritual director regularly throughout the year.

​

You will usually meet with your spiritual director every 6-8 weeks for about an hour.

A spiritual director or companion is someone who has specific skills in:

​

• listening

• helping you to reflect more deeply about your faith journey

• helping you to reflect on your relationship with God.

Many spiritual directors have received specific training in spiritual direction.

Spiritual directors represent a wide variety of ages, denominations and traditions. They may be ordained, from a religious order or they may be a lay person (not ordained).

The choice of who you meet with as your spiritual director is up to you.

The most important thing is to find a spiritual director with whom you feel comfortable.

If you would like to find a spiritual director or have any further questions about it, please contact us.

Directors may ask for a donation for their time and suggest a suitable fee.

​

Concessions are usually made for unwaged.

Spiritual direction is open to anyone wishing to explore their faith journey.

​

There are no expectations or special requirements, just an interest in sharing your story with another person.
