Spiritual Direction Staff Descriptions

The staff members available for spiritual direction are as follows:
Fr. Keith Clark, OFM Cap;  Fr. Art Cooney, OFM Cap; and Sr. Marlene Weber, FSPA.

We bring our own approaches and experiences of God and life to the  personal sessions.
Below, each of us describe how we journey with people in this sacred relationship.


Fr. KEITH CLARK:  I listen.  This seems to help people hear themselves.  Occasionally I have some comment or advice to offer from my own experience of trying to be open to God, or from what I have studied, or from what I have learned from listening to people for the past forty years.  Mainly I listen for statements of the person which indicate that God's Spirit is active in his or her ordinary life.  When I hear such statements,  I draw the person's attention to what the Spirit of God may be doing in his or her life.         kclark@thecapuchins.org

 


Fr. ART COONEY:  I see my role  as helping persons identify the movements and direction of the Holy Spirit in their life.  This includes recognizing their own giftedness and experiencing a more abundant life.          fr_art@hotmail.com

 

 

 

 


Sr. MARLENE WEBER:  I ask the person to share his or her life journey up to the time we begin the walk together.  I see my role as that  of a companion, listening to and reflecting back the experiences shared, supporting, challenging,  and encouraging the deepening of her or his relationship with God along the way.            mwfspa@new.rr.com
