Stillpoint’s Spiritual Journey program is designed to help you practice listening deeply to God and your own inner wisdom within a small group community.
Here you can explore contemplative ways of paying attention to your life, cultivate awareness of how you respond to “The More” beckoning you to grow in self-understanding, sample varied forms of prayer and reflection, and experiment with new ways to uncover and converse about spiritual experiences.
You will be introduced to the deep and expansive practices of spiritual formation, the ancient practice of spiritual direction, and a process of discernment for the next steps in your spiritual journey.
The Spiritual Journey Program is open to people of all denominations and faiths who are seeking to go deeper in their spiritual walk. Pilgrims on their own journey accompany and enrich our own journeys. We are rooted in the contemplative tradition and we welcome a diverse and inclusive learning community.
