SSCM SPIRITUAL DIRECTORS

Spiritual Direction
"The Mystery we call God is just that - mystery; not mystery in the sense of an unknown, but eventually knowable, stranger, but mystery in the sense that God is too rich, too deep, and too loving to be knowable and is, therefore, God.  Spiritual Directors can be only helping companions to those who travel the way of such a God."

The Practice of Spiritual Direction
~William A. Berry



"Onging spiritual direction
has helped 
me understand
my true priorities and develop
a
 stronger relationship with
Jesus and Our Blessed 
Mother.
My spiritual director's nurturing

guidance brings a deeper, more
prayerful focus to 
my life and
comfort to my faith journey."

~Bonnie Tilton Sebby
