"My spiritual guide frequently helps me see the action of God in my life – to see the obvious that hasn’t been at all obvious to me."

Spiritual guidance is reflection on the presence and action of God in your life and prayer with a trained and experienced guide. This confidential sharing leads to a greater knowledge of both God and yourself. In a guidance session you take a deeper look at what is going on in your life. You examine your relationships—with God, yourself and others—and what is being asked of you. You may recognize this need in times of discernment, crisis, loss, transition or when you feel a desire to grow spiritually.


At the monastery, trained spiritual guides provide private and confidential spiritual guidance by appointment. Spiritual guidance may be requested in regular ongoing sessions, as part of a personal retreat, or as a single meeting. Spiritual guidance is available for women and men.


A fee of $30-50/session is suggested.

To arrange spiritual guidance, call, email or write one of our spiritual guides.
