Prior to the first meeting, the
directee and
director both ask God to reveal His desire for an ongoing spiritual
direction relationship. Together the pair arranges future meetings and
an evaluation time within 4 months. Neither should decide the future
based on one meeting. The director then should reflect on the 3-way
conversation with the directee and the Holy Spirit, before preparing
for the next meeting. The director is responsible for referring the
directee to another for help when the relationship does not work well.
But because the relationship is dependent on the Spirit, hope is
eternal.
The covenant between director and directee needs to be reviewed
periodically (at least annually) and a mutual decision is necessary to
continue the relationship. While either party can terminate the
relationship any time, each should honor his commitment to “engage
fully and remain in the relationship” for the agreed-upon time
period. Continued participation is a way of remaining available to God.
Each should examine reasons for separating and what he will do if the
relationship ends. Prayer should precede the extension and/or
termination. Struggles in this relationship “reflect struggles in
one’s relationship with God.” Should the direction relationship end in
disagreement or betrayal, vulnerability will be difficult in future
relationships. Seek no other spiritual director because of
defensiveness or disenchantment with the current director.

Directions
to Hebron When you get to Colorado Springs, exit I-25 at Hiway 24 West (Cimarron Street exit, not Fountain Blvd exit which is Hiway 24 east). You will see Walmart on the left before you exit I-25. Go west 25 miles on Hiway 24 (through Woodland Park) to the Town of Divide. At the Hiway 67 traffic light, there is a shopping center on the right. From Divide, go north on Teller County Road 5 one mile to the cemetery. Take the right branch of the Y (not Teller County road 51) and go up and down 4 more miles to Aspen Moors. If the pavement ends, you have gone 100 yards too far. Turn East on Moors Road, turn left at the T onto Pond Drive. We are the first house on left, a grey, 2 story house. |
