Develop as a Spiritual Director

LCSD offers a wide programme of events and groups designed to foster the ongoing development and support of Spiritual Directors. We offer one-off days, evenings, short courses and supervision groups.

Our courses cover a broad spectrum of topics, themes and practice issues related to the ministry of Spiritual Direction. They are led by experienced practitioners from all over the country and, in keeping with the nature of formation, will usually consist of a mix of input, personal reflection, discussion and prayer.

“I loved the gentle and generous space that was given to reflect both personally and with each other about what is being noticed, learned and digested; it was a very thoughtfully planned programme and I really appreciated the pacing and rhythms, balance of context and reflection”
