Ongoing Formation for Spiritual Directors & Supervisors
- Being With Jesus In His Passion: Then and Now - The Third Week of the Spiritual Exercises ~ Presenter: Fr. James M. Bowler, SJ ~ This workshop will explore the Third Week of The Spiritual Exercises as the passion of Christ according to Ignatius. We will begin with a parsing of the text followed by its purpose for the person making The Exercises. Next, through exploring the concepts of the paschal mystery and kenosis, we will move to the archetypal dimension of this movement as a phenomenon at the core of Christian anthropology and cosmology. Finally we will reflect on how this archetypal phenomenon relates to John of the Cross’s DARK NIGHT and James Fowler’s Stage V of his Faith Development Theory.
- Holy Fire: Sexual Integration in Spiritual Direction ~ Presenter: Kathy Galleher, Ph.D. ~ Sexuality is a gift which allows us to love, connect deeply with others, and bring forth new life. It is also an aspect of ourselves in which we frequently carry wounds, fears and shame. All too often our sexuality is ‘hidden from God’, compartmentalized and not integrated into our spirituality. This workshop, intended for spiritual directors, supervisors and students in formation, focuses on understanding and fostering sexual integration and developing tools for addressing sexual issues which may arise in spiritual direction. We will focus on understanding the interrelationship of spirituality and sexuality, how to support and promote sexual integration and sexual self-acceptance, (particularly with sexual orientation) how to identify and work with areas of shame and sexual woundedness (including sexual abuse), the importance of healthy emotional and sexual boundaries in spiritual direction, and when/how to refer to mental health professionals.
