Testimonials of directees
I have discovered that there is something I cannot learn alone in our spiritual path, no matter how much I try and no matter how much I want. As I cannot perform an operation on myself, I need the spiritual hand of another I trust. A good spiritual director is such an "other." Thank you!
 
As always, Mary Sharon, thank you for your wonderful inspiration and guidance.
I'm amazed that you are a part of my God-journey
and I thank God that I have met you.
 
Mary Sharon, struggling alone and struggling with a good spiritual director are two completely different things. Each struggle is now a stepping stone to another blessing . . . a means to discover another gift. Thank you so much, Mary Sharon, for your excellent direction and your constant prayers.

What you need is to recognize the possibilities and challenges offered by the present moment,
and to embrace them with courage, faith, and hope." (Thomas Merton)
