Develop as a Spiritual Director
LCSD offer a wide programme of events and groups designed to foster the ongoing development and support of spiritual directors. We offer one-off days, evenings, short courses and supervision groups.
Our courses cover a broad spectrum of topics, themes and practice issues related to the ministry of spiritual direction. They are led by experienced practitioners from all over the country and, in keeping with the nature of formation, will usually consist of a mix of input, personal reflection, discussion and prayer.
Ways to grow in your practice.

Developing Direction: Fridays
Developing Direction is the Centre’s programme of events and groups designed to foster the ongoing development and support of spiritual directors. These happen online the first Friday of the month , 10am - 3pm.

Developing Direction: Saturdays
We want everyone to be able to grow and develop in their practice and recognise that daytime isn’t a good time or you don’t have the time to spend a whole day in training, So we offer training on Saturday mornings.

Supervision
Supervison is essential for spiritual directors. If you are not in supervison currently or looking for 1-1 supervision, we can connect you with a supervison group or a supervisor.

Safeguarding & Safeguarding training
LCSD takes its duty and obligation to protect all extremely seriously. We have adopted thorough Safeguarding procedures and run an annual safeguarding training.

Network Day
Open to all spiritual directors across greater London and beyond, the Network Day is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate spiritual direction and to enjoy meeting up with colleagues and friends who share this work.
There are typically one or two talks, time for formal and informal discussion and a liturgy within which we are invited to re-dedicate our ministry and to pray for one another.
