Spiritual Direction

“Spiritual Direction is, in reality, nothing more than a way of leading us to see and obey the real Director – the Holy Spirit hidden in the depths of our soul.”

Thomas Merton

About

Spiritual Direction

Spiritual direction is the ancient practice of attuning to the presence of God. A Spiritual Director does not have the answers and is not trying to fix anything. She simply holds the space and asks questions in order to help the directee connect with the Lord and prepare to respond. Spiritual Direction is compassionate, attentive, and confidential. It’s also called Holy Listening; Sacred Companionship; Soul-Tending.

I appreciate the way Spiritual Direction creates space for my thoughts to breathe and co-mingle with the thoughts of God. It is an opportunity to receive non-critical feedback; and hearing my thoughts, words and ideas reflected back to me helps me learn about my interactions with myself, people, God and the world. The habit of Spiritual Direction brings into focus the long threads of God’s faithfulness in my life and the world around me.
I experienced Rachel as a calm, safe, and fiery presence. Her hospitable being opens a door that invites a person to come share sacred space and unravel the mysteries we all walk in each day. Rachel offers helpful language in a variety of ways be it questions, prompts, prayers, or poems. I am grateful for Rachel.
