Souljourners Inquiry Sessions
facilitated by S. Mary Elizabeth Schweiger, OSB
 

Souljourners is a three-year spiritual formation program for the training of spiritual directors.

If you are experiencing a call to spiritual renewal and at the same time want to learn the skills of discernment and deep listening to God, yourself, and others, let’s talk! In preparation for the 2022-2023 Souljourners Program, we are hosting the following inquiry sessions so you can learn more:

January 15, 2022, Saturday, 10:00 a.m.-11:00 a.m. (Zoom)
February 16, 2022, Wednesday, 1:00 p.m.-3:00 p.m. (on-site)
March 15, 2022, Tuesday, 11:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m. (Zoom)

May 5, 2022, Thursday, 3:00 p.m.-4:00 p.m. (Zoom)

These sessions will provide:
An introduction to the Souljourners program
An explanation of a spiritual direction session
Time for questions and concerns
Time for prayer and reflection on your call
A tour of Sophia Center, where we host Souljourners weekend classes (on-site sessions only)
