Finding a Spiritual Director — If you would like to meet with a spiritual director, we can help find a suitable candidate. The first step is to contact and meet with Ingrid Sletten, who is a spiritual director and parishioner at Saint Mary’s. Before meeting with her, please complete a questionnaire and send it to Ingrid. She will use the information to help propose a director.
Considering Spiritual Direction — If you are curious about spiritual direction, but not yet ready to meet with one, you can still arrange a conversation with Ingrid to consider possible next steps for your discernment. Father Sammy Wood is also a resource to discuss spiritual direction. If you feel led to direction by God, but are not interested in talking with us now, we encourage you to pray in whatever way is familiar to you and await the direction of the Holy Spirit.
All conversations are confidential. Your safety and well-being are uppermost at Saint Mary's. We adhere to the professional standards and ethics of Spiritual Director's International (SDI Ethics Brochure).
Godspeed in your sacred journey with God.
