Becoming PRESENCE is a two‑year, part‑time spiritual formation program rooted in the Christian tradition, designed to prepare participants for the sacred ministry of spiritual direction. This gentle and transformative pathway unfolds in two movements—Becoming and PRESENCE—each supporting a deepening awareness of God’s presence within and around us.
Becoming invites participants into a journey of inner grounding, fostering self‑knowledge and cultivating a richer, more contemplative spiritual life. Building upon this foundation, PRESENCE nurtures the practical and relational skills necessary for spiritual direction through a supervised practicum, complemented by learning modules and retreat experiences that encourage integration, listening, and discernment.
Together, these two components form a holistic and prayerful approach to formation—a meaningful pathway for those sensing a call to accompany others on their spiritual journeys. If you or someone you know feels drawn toward the ministry of spiritual direction, we warmly invite you to explore the program in more detail.
