Faculty
Eleanor Hoppe recently moved to Milwaukee, and is exploring the natural wonders of the midwest between Lake Michigan and the Milwaukee River - as well as exploring a variety of faith communities. She spent 30 years at First Pres Hollywood, an intergenerational faith community that emphasized care for folks on the margins. While there, she taught children’s Sunday School and women’s Bible study, served as an elder, and worked with people preparing for ministry. Mom to three grown kids, she is particularly grateful for the gift of unschooling them for a time. Speaking of Jesus by Carl Medearis and the video Godspeed: The Pace of Being Known were pivotal in expanding Eleanor’s concept of faith. Eleanor completed Stillpoint’s Art of Spiritual Direction and Group Spiritual Direction training, and currently co-facilitates one of the Journey classes.
Kay Veal serves as a spiritual director in Albuquerque, NM. She graduated from Stillpoint and is on the faculty of Stillpoint at Ghost Ranch. She has over 30 years experience offering support in various volunteer areas such as a Stephen Minister Leader, hospice companion, bereavement facilitator and the local Childrens’ Grief Center. Through her Episcopal church she has served as a hospital chaplain and Lay Eucharistic Minister. She loves the quote from Ram Dass; “we are all just walking each other home.” As a spiritual companion she welcomes all backgrounds and interests on this walk.
