The Learning Space at Nathanael's Rest
Dayspring offers both the training of Spiritual Directors and Spiritual Direction to those who seek it.
Our program of training integrates more than two decades of experience in this area and began with a Certificate of Training that the Australian Network of Spiritual Directors recognised as an appropriate qualification for someone to offer themselves as a Spiritual Director. For a number of years, this training was offered as a nationally recognised Vocational Graduate Diploma. Over the past few years, this has made a further transition, in partnership with the Uniting College of Leadership and Theology in Adelaide, into a Higher Education Graduate Diploma that can be translated with further study into a Masters degree.

Spiritual Direction during a retreat
Spiritual direction describes the conversation one believer has with another about their life in the light of their faith. Some people use the term Companioning which emphasises the absence of a power-relationship between the two. People of faith often desire to find a companion who will journey with them, helping them to better notice the action of God in their daily experiences. Responding to the insights gained from these conversations can deepen a person's relationship with God and those in their community.
Dayspring has a small group of dedicated and experienced Spiritual Directors, graduates of our training program and Members of the Australian Network of Spiritual Directors, who make themselves available to you through Dayspring. Meeting monthly can give you a structure for accountability and growth.
Cost: $70 per session for those who are working, and $60 for the unwaged.
A lower fee can be negotiated if needed.
The Australian Network of Spiritual Directors provides details of its members who are available for Spiritual Direction. You may find someone closer to you than our Dayspring Centre. You will find their list HERE.
