Spiritual direction is a privileged time and place to confidentially reflect with a trusted person about your relationship with God. The focus is your life with God as it is lived out in all your experiences. Spiritual direction is for those who may be experiencing life’s transitions and even at times
seeking God when it feels like God is distant. A director may help you discern the next direction in your life and what God’s desire is for you. The gift of spiritual direction is the process of coming home to your deepest self, discovering God in the midst of daily living. Spiritual direction can add to your conscious experience of God’s presence and love.
In spiritual direction, you reflect deeply on the experiences of your daily life. The intended “content” for each session is what you bring — prayer, images of God, questions of faith, relationship situations, joys, sadness, fears, hopes. What takes place during the session is what God desires, because the true director is the Holy Spirit.
All spiritual directors at St. Laurence have received specialized training and certification in Spiritual Direction and volunteer their time in this ministry.
