[Spiritual direction] is a beautiful expression of Divine guidance through the help of our brothers and sisters.
– Richard J. Foster
An ancient practice, spiritual direction is the art of contemplative listening. By listening with the whole of your being you can better discern how the Spirit is present in your life. During spiritual direction, you share life experiences, personal perspectives, and encounters with the Divine.
Connect With A Spiritual Director
Connect with one of Dominican Center’s Spiritual Directors to walk with you on your spiritual journey during life’s times of joy, grief, challenge, and peace. Our Spiritual Directors have created an intentional space for listening and discerning, and are here to help with gentle wisdom and keen observation to guide you as you become aware of how the Spirit works within you and around you.
Spiritual direction is helpful when you are:
- Feeling fragmented, disjointed, and out of touch
- Making an important decision
- Making a change or transition in your life
- Healing from a traumatic experience
- Dealing with loss of any kind
- Desiring growth in prayer and clarity
- Searching for your passion
