Spiritual Journal writing is a profound and personal way to listen to our heart and soul. It provides us with a way to hear what is stirring inside of us, and gives form to our innermost thoughts and feelings. It’s a perfect process for exploring and deepening our spiritual journey.

This program is a 3-week experiential group, offering you the opportunity to engage in spiritual journal writing practices. We will use prompts from poetry, music, Visio Divina (sacred seeing), and spiritual journals from mystics and writers like Thomas Merton and others.

We will write, pray, and share our words in a contemplative community that respects everyone’s individual expression of the sacred.
