Emmaus Formation Centre presents
FLOURISHING IN SPIRITUAL DIRECTION:
SUPERVISION AS SPIRITUAL FORMATION
with Dr. Maria Chan
Saturday, April 22, 2023
10 a.m.- 3 p.m. EST
Spiritual direction is a ministry where both directees and directors can flourish. When directees benefit from spiritual direction, directors flourish. When directors benefit from supervision, directees flourish. Discover how the spiritual formation of directors is greatly enriched through supervision that prioritizes the presence and movement of God in our spiritual direction sessions – for His sake, the directee’s wellbeing, and our ongoing spiritual formation.
IMPORTANCE OF SPIRITUAL DIRECTORS
Spiritual direction institutions worldwide, have as part of their ethical guidelines, the importance of supervision for their practicing spiritual directors.
COME AND EXPLORE:
How to flourish as a spiritual director
Why supervision is crucial for spiritual directors
The different kinds of supervision available
Why directees need directors to be in supervision
How supervision enriches spiritual formation
Your curiosity, openness and readiness to engage teachings and times of reflection throughout the day is warmly welcomed! At the conclusion of the workshop, participants can expect to have a broader understanding of spiritual direction, a deeper appreciation of supervision and a greater commitment to regular supervision that heightens awareness of God that benefits both the director and ultimately, the directee.
