Ministry Description:
I will walk alongside you as a lamp-bearing companion who will help illuminate the wisdom of your own soul. Together, we will watch and listen with curiosity and tenderness for what’s emerging in your daily life and for signs of Divine presence and invitation. If desired, we may weave things like poetry, music, movement meditation, time in nature, body wisdom, dreamwork, and archetypal discovery into our times together. I offer a compassionate listening space that is trauma-informed. I am committed to diversity and inclusion as I endeavor to create safe and brave spaces for spiritual discovery, transformation and growth. I am available to meet in person in my home studio, by phone, or by video. Background: I am a certified Spiritual Director trained in the Jungian, Mystical Christian tradition through the Haden Institute. I have served as part of a church planting team and also as a pastor within the Mennonite Church of Eastern Ontario. I have experience working with leaders and congregations in times of discernment and transition. My own spirituality is shaped by devotion to the way of Jesus, by daily practices flowing out of a variety of contemplative streams, and by the Earth and her seasons. With deep roots in the Anabaptist tradition, my ongoing transformation is anchored in the gifts of life shared in relationship and community. At home in the Niagara Region, I love to hike local trails, garden, read, and gather family and friends around my table. |
