spiritual practices
Spiritual practices are intentional patterns that deepen the relationship with God. These patterns are designed to be practiced by small groups and individuals.
 
     
  alone with God
   
In the midst of busy lives, the spiritual life calls out for time alone with God. We each desire to be open with God and to hear God’s voice in our lives. Here are some ancient and modern ways to practice the presence of our relationship with God
  in a group
   

The spiritual life is strengthened in community. Others are both a gift and a challenge to us, as we learn together what it is to be faithful people of God. Spiritual practices are an essential part of group life.

  in the world
   
We are called to draw closer to God, so that the Spirit can use us in the world.
  youth and children
