"We have this world that is in need of so much healing..."

"......, many of us want to know how and where we are being called. We are all called, we all get blocked and how is it that these blocks are lifted? Do we remove them ourselves? Where does grace come in? Can we even do anything to effect grace, or is it simply a gift?"

From an article on the St. Joan of Arc Parish Website
Voices in the Community, A Conversation with Parishioner Karin Grosscup - On the need for Spiritual Direction

The task of the spiritual director is both one of the most exhilarating and challenging things I have done. To companion another listening on such Holy Ground, is a privilege as we listen in the moment remembering “Be still and know I am God.
