This course will include: listening skills, discernment of spirits, a model of Ignatian spiritual conversation and accompaniment, and ways of praying. The course will help deepen and improve one-to-one pastoral ministry, using Ignatian principles based on the Spiritual Exercises which will be valuable in a variety of pastoral settings. This course will also introduce some of the skills necessary for spiritual direction, but while the course may reveal a gift for spiritual direction, it does not provide sufficient training for people to offer spiritual direction.
Course requirements:
Commitment to one’s own prayer life
Experience of receiving spiritual accompaniment on directed retreats or ongoing spiritual direction
Please arrive between 2.30pm and 4.30pm on the first day to have time to settle in. The retreat finishes after breakfast on the last day.
