We desire to serve the Australian spiritual direction community by:
- encouraging spiritual direction formation programs;
- promoting local and national events;
- linking spiritual directors with regional and national associations;
- advising people who are looking for a spiritual director how to find a director near them.
It is with excitement that AECSD invites you to the National Gathering: Sharing the Gifts 2012 from September 21st – September 23rd 2012 in Melbourne.
The Conference will be held at Xavier College in Kew, and our keynote speaker will be Monty Williams SJ.
