Renovate: A Refresher Cohort for Spiritual Directors

Renovate: Tools, Support and Skills for Refreshing your Spiritual Direction Practice

Renovate is a yearlong cohort for trained spiritual directors who are looking for additional training, tools, and support for their practice. Led by Anam Cara trained spiritual directors and supervisors, Rachel Reed and Jeremy Frye, this year long training includes monthly online training modules,gathering for praxis, as well as small group supervision.

Over the course of the year we will take time to define spiritual direction, discuss the role of supervision in the practice of spiritual direction, learn and practice helpful (or practical) skills, look at ethical dilemmas and relational roles, explore what it means to be a non-manipulative presence and approach the topic that nearly all of us are uncomfortable with; the business of your spiritual direction practice.

Cohort is limited to 20 participants.

Here’s what past participants are saying about Renovate:

 “Renovate has been a wonderful year of “continuing education” for my spiritual direction practice. I have learned so much from the collective wisdom of our community and loved that each of us were trained as spiritual directors in different programs.” – Pace

“I have thoroughly enjoyed and been enriched by the Renovate course this last year. Rachel and Jeremy’s presentation, information and individual wisdom were extremely helpful and encouraging. I was able to hone my skills as a spiritual director, learn new concepts, tools and awarenesses that I had not learned in my initial training. I know I am a better spiritual director because of this course.” – Kim

“Renovate  has been a great experience this past year. After many years of practicing spiritual direction, Jeremy, Rachel, and the cohort members have helped me to reconsider best practices, refresh some skills, and consider some new approaches. Practicing spiritual direction can feel like a lonely journey at times, but this community was very gracious and supportive. I feel refreshed to chart my path forward practicing spiritual direction.”  – Shelley
