Photo compliments of the Gazette Telegraph of Sr. Mary Colleen Schwarz and directeeWhat is Spiritual Direction? Read reflections compiled from many different faith traditions regarding the practice of Spiritual Direction.

Many people desire a person to reflect with them about their spiritual journey, or to lead and encourage them as they explore a new aspect of their spirituality. When we talk things over with someone who can help us see our everyday life experience through the eyes of faith, we are receiving Spiritual Direction. The primary focus in a spiritual direction session is our relationship with God, and the integration of that relationship into our lives.

Benet Pines and Benet Hill Monastery have each become known as a place where individual spiritual direction is not only available, but a priority. The majority of men and women who come for regular spiritual direction schedule appointments on a monthly basis. It is necessary to call ahead to arrange a spiritual direction session. 

Suggested Donation: $35-$55 per 1-hour session

  Staff members who are currently taking new Directees are: Francine Stallbaumer, OSB, Therese O'Grady, OSB, Mary Colleen Schwarz, OSB, Susan Matarrese, OSB, and Patty Degen. For other available directors, or to schedule an appointment with any of the staff, we invite you to call Benet Hill Monastery.

"My role as a Spiritual Director is to help you come to know, hear and see how God is moving in your life and to find God's voice. Spiritual Direction is not counseling. It is a sacred time for us to come together to listen to God. The goal is to be present to each other for the purpose of your spiritual growth." Patty Degen, Spiritual Director
