Spiritual Direction<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A spiritual director is a privileged witness<\/strong> in the spiritual unfolding of another person. The focus is on the relationship between the \u201cdirectee\u201d and God, rather than on the relationship between the director and directee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spiritual Care<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Spiritual care provides triage to those facing various crises and turning points as well as longer term goal oriented sessions. This is also a more interactive form of Spiritual Direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLesli speaks, ministers, and cares for people from a deep place of compassion and grace. Their heart and skill for walking with and guiding all people are born from their own life experience and extensive education. I have personally witnessed and experienced Lesli\u2019s love for Jesus and desire to lead others into His love.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLesli offers a humble and compassionate heart as a spiritual director. I have worked with Lesli for multiple years in ministry and have witnessed firsthand their wisdom and listening abilities as a companion through complex situations. Whether dealing with burnout, doubt, or generally seeking to grow spiritually, Lesli would be a great companion along the journey.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
