My Approach
P.I.C.T.U.R.E
-
Personalized: Each week, I will offer you “spiritual exercises,” or daily prayer practices tailored for your life situation and interests, which you can explore at your own pace.
-
Imaginative: Many of these prayer practices will involve your imaginative entry into scenes from Jesus' life.
-
Creative: I will also provide guidance for transformative experiences with nature (e.g., walking meditation) and the expressive arts (e.g., SoulCollage®).
-
Transformative: These prayer practices enliven and integrate mind, body, heart, soul, and spirit, supporting holistic spiritual development.
-
Unitive: In this way, the spiritual exercises will invite you to become more receptive and responsive to the presence of Love in "all things."
-
Reflective: During this extended retreat at home, you will meet weekly with me on Zoom to process your experiences and to integrate the gifts of your journey.
-
Experiential: Your lived experiences of spiritual growth are central in this retreat.
"You are loved.
You are not alone.
You are known, needed.
You are part of a great leap of loving.
Go shining."
