Family Spiritual Direction

It all started when…

Family Spiritual Direction Project (FSDP) explores the potential of spiritual direction with families as a space for faith formation in the lives of children as well as their faith communities. Participating families will assist in their churches worship leadership - connecting their children's faith formation to fuller participation in the life of their congregation. The program will be working on creating 2 resources to share: a curriculum for congregations to implement spiritual direction in ministries to children and families as well as a devotional for parents to use as they nurture the spiritual lives of their kids.

“When a family receives spiritual direction together, children witness and legitimately participate in their parents' faith practice while at the same time grow an awareness of God’s presence in their life. We can’t wait to see how the spiritual formation of children inspires their families and faith communities.”
