The Art of Spiritual Direction Supervision
This Stillpoint offering equips seasoned spiritual directors in becoming supervisors for other spiritual directors ever in service of the directees we are graced to companion.
Through presentations, case studies, demonstrations, triadic real-plays, and one-on-one supervision sessions, we will explore the nature of supervision, common issues brought to supervision in the ministry of spiritual direction, dynamics of power and privilege in spiritual direction, models of supervision, and the skills and processes that cultivate interior freedom and grounded clarity in the spiritual directors one is called to supervise.
Contemplative Retreats
Stillpoint’s One Day Retreats are a day of tending to the longing of the soul. These contemplative retreats are space and time apart, in community, to listen to the new and old ways Spirit is working in our lives and strengthening us for our work in the world. This care of our interior life helps us know what is ours to do, and know we have all that we need to do it.
These retreats are designed to be restorative and deeply nourishing to spiritual directors.
As Stillpoint looks ahead to plan future offerings,
we would love to know your interest in other programs.
An Enneagram Graduate Program for Spiritual Directors
Stillpoint is considering adding another graduate program to the current offerings. One that is being considered is an Enneagram program that will be valuable in the process of self awareness and understanding, and that can lead to a greater awareness of one another.
