About the Conference for Spiritual Directors course

Spiritual Direction Conference 2022: Distinct and Dynamic

The ministry of spiritual direction has a unique charism yet can take many different forms.

It has a recognisable and distinctive core, rooted in tradition, and yet is constantly adapting to new contexts. The interplay between rigour and creativity informs a dynamic, living tradition of spiritual accompaniment which is ever surprising and endlessly challenging.

This conference invites practitioners into a prophetic space for conversation, listening and exploration. The programme includes time to listen to invited speakers as well space to engage with one another.

Contributors include:
Christopher Chapman
Julie Dunstan
Liz Hoare
David Runcorn
Catherine Williams

The town of Salisbury and the Cathedral are on the doorstep. There will opportunities to enjoy the beautiful Salisbury Cathedral Close. Extend your stay to attend cultural events, go sightseeing (Stonehenge is nearby for example) or shopping.

The Experience Salisbury. website has an excellent city-wide listing of forthcoming events around the city.

What our students say

Clergy Study Breaks

The opportunity for clergy to get away occasionally from their own context, to have an overnight stay in the beautiful setting of Sarum College and all that the Salisbury Cathedral Close offers is hugely valuable. All the clergy I have suggested who have spent 24hrs at Sarum College have benefit greatly from the experienced mentoring where they can talk, reflect, think, plan and pray.

The support and encouragement they receive is excellent and has a positive on their on going ministry. This is something the Diocese of Rochester encourages and supports financially in preparation for their clergy preparing for Extended Ministerial Development Leave (Sabbatical).

— Canon Christopher Dench, Diocese of Rochester Director of Formation and Ministry

Retreats and Private Stays

When I arrived, exhausted and sensitive, I was grateful not to be asked by Reception were I came from, whether I had had a good journey etc. That was the kind of hospitality I needed: a non-intrusive welcome that was found in ancient cultures and still survives in some societies today, where the host asks questions about a stranger and his journey only when the visitor has rested and been given food and drink.

— guest on a private stay

Biblical Study Breaks

I just found it very refreshing – as a leader of a church I don’t get as many opportunities to step out and do courses (my fault, not the church!) and so I loved it. I think it was run really well online – which is a difficult medium to work with.

Pádraig Ó Tuama (pictured) was outstanding in his balance of getting us to engage and sharing his learning. Also the quick availability of resources provided by Sarum College Librarian Jayne Downey was excellent.
