A Spiritual Companions Group consists of 5-8 persons who meet once a month to share their spiritual journeys with one another. This gentle and contemplative process involves taking a “long loving look” at one’s life in an atmosphere of confidentiality, trust, and openness. Individuals take turns sharing matters of spiritual interest. Other group members listen attentively and respond in ways that encourage the presenter to explore the situation more deeply. It is a very respectful process, without advice giving or attempts to "fix" the presenter. Over time a strong sense of community develops among group members.
Diversity is valued: persons of any spiritual tradition, or no tradition, are welcome to participate. Participants will be given a manual that provides guidance on how we can best companion one another. No prior experience is necessary. The groups are led by experienced spiritual directors. You could use a Spiritual Companions Group to help you:
Identify and trust your experiences of God
Integrate spirituality into your daily life
Find meaning in hopes, struggles, or losses
Discern and make difficult choices
Increase sensitivity to Justice, Peace, & Environmental Concerns
Live more authentically in spiritual community.
