As a sounding board, spiritual directors, along with their directees, try to listen to how God is speaking to the directee. Most persons begin to seek a spiritual director when they sense a change in their relationship with God, or within their prayer life. Spiritual direction is generally for persons who have an established inner life and want to grow in grace. It is for individuals who want to develop a closer or more mature relationship with God. Spiritual direction is an ongoing relationship.
Meetings usually occur once a month.
