~Do you desire to deepen your relationship with God?
~Long to notice God's loving presence in all aspects of your life?
~want to experience spiritual rest?
Yes? Maybe Spiritual Direction is for you!What is Spiritual Direction?"Spiritual Direction is a safe place to explore your questions and concerns about your life with God. A Christian spiritual director is a trained listener who will accompany you as you share about your spiritual journey, helping you to notice God’s presence and activity along the way, as well as your personal reactions and responses.” (Grafted Life Ministries)
How will this enrich my Life?Connecting one-on-one with a spiritual director—often called a spiritual companion—helps you become intentional about your faith journey and deepens your process of loving, hearing, and experiencing God. With your spiritual companion, you have a scheduled opportunity to pause, pray, listen, and rest in God’s loving engagement with you.
"Spiritual direction is an activity that involves paying attention to one’s whole life—the prayed about parts and what one might typically leave un-prayed about—with the understanding that God is in the picture.” (Spiritual Director Jeremy Stefano)

Here is what others say about their experience of spiritual direction with Joan:
"I’m really not sure what I expected from these Spiritual Direction sessions. This was new for me. But I admit that I'm amazed at what a blessing they have been. I believe our triune God has provided direction (often surprising even) on things that have been on my mind. Frequently I get the sense that He just wants me to be still (not easy for me but I’m learning) and to be with him. I’m so thankful to Joan for her role and participation in these sessions." - Karen H. |
