SPIRITUAL DIRECTION
A new resource has come to you through Awakenings Prayer!
Pastor Wes Johnson was recently certified as a spiritual director through Soul Shepherding Institute. In May, Theresa Schaudies will finish up her certification through Christian Formation and Direction Ministries.
What is a spiritual director, anyway?
The answer has filled many volumes over the years, but what most contemporary writers agree on is that the word "director" is very misleading.
Our only director is God!
We prefer the terms "companion" or "soul friend."
What you can expect is a compassionate listener who will help you explore your relationship with God. This is not psychotherapy, it is not counseling. We will not "fix" you. We will help you see for yourself what God is doing in your life.
Sessions are usually about an hour. People may seek a spiritual director for a specific point of discernment, or for a longer term commitment. It's up to you.
Spiritual direction is offered on a free-will donation basis.
Is spiritual direction for you?

The last Creatives Event was at the Johnson's home on Friday, August 22, at 6:30. Stay tuned for the next one to be held in early 2020.

Dear Friends,
Please join us on Friday, August 22 at 6:30.
Wes and Kathryn Johnson have graciously offered their home to host us again.
Do you play a musical instrument, write, draw, design clothing, invent fabulous new recipes, compose music, paint, design websites, arrange flowers, etc, etc? Once again we’ll share a little of what we’ve been up to since we last met. Bring some samples of your work, read from your
poetry or prose, play your instrument, sing your song, share your dreams.
Invite other creative people to join us. Please RSVP so we know how many snacks to have on hand.
To Glorify Him,
Theresa Schaudies
