Receives mentoring in contemplative leadership and made his annual retreat
“They always point back to discernment. They have a unique posture that remains contemplative and docile as together we watch God unfold His plan for whatever we are discussing. Their mentorship has been a life-saver in keeping me rooted not in what I think I need to do, but in responding to what God is asking of me.”
