Friends, I hope your Saturday is going well. I've decided to cancel the Calling Conversations scheduled for Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday of this week due to low registration. I know your hearts and minds are full of many things right now and trust that you're finding all that you need right now for encouragement and peace. Know that I carry you and your stories in my heart and give thanks to the Father for you.
Peace, friends,
T

On becoming a Spiritual Director...
As friends have asked me to describe my experience becoming a Spiritual Director, the phrase I’ve used most often in response is “coming home”. That theme of feeling at home - in relationship with God, myself, faculty, curricula, and cohort - overwhelmed me for most of the two years of my certification.
During our first session in June 2017, the Director, Susan, invited us to share a symbol of what spiritual direction meant to us. She placed a miniature of Rublev’s icon of the Trinity, others placed items like a candle, flashlight, and various meaningful figurines. To be honest, I’d forgotten about this assignment until fifteen minutes before we began. Rummaging through my luggage, I picked up a hand-knit, yellow tote bag my friend had given me for my birthday this year. When I’d left my house in Connecticut I’d noticed the tote, and on a whim added it to my luggage.
