Spiritual direction provides an opportunity to pay particular attention to the way in which God is communicating with us in order to grow in intimacy with Christ. It is a formal one-on-one relationship between a director and a directee which enables the directee to:
- Pay attention and respond to God’s personal communication,
- Discern the work of the Lord in his or her life, and
- Live out the values of this relationship with God
Bellarmine offers interested individuals the opportunity to meet with an experienced religious or lay spiritual director. One usually meets with their spiritual director once a month for about an hour. There is a stipend requested to help support the ministry of a professional spiritual director. When working with a qualified intern under the supervision of a professional director, there is no fee.
If you are interested in meeting with a spiritual director, fill out the form below.
You will be contacted by a member of the Bellarmine staff to pair you with a director for spiritual consultation. Please allow a week to hear from Bellarmine regarding a spiritual director.
If your need requires immediate emergency attention, please contact the Archdiocese of Chicago at 312-534-8200.
