2022 New Contemplatives
The New Contemplatives Initiative seeks to encourage, understand and engage with spiritual directors and companions in the first half of their lives (aged 40-ish or under) by offering a container for vocational support and development.
With our conference theme of “Engage,” these New Contemplatives will play a key role in helping SDI create a truly inter-generational community.
Please Help Support Our New Contemplatives Initiative
Generous donors make the New Contemplatives program possible.
More donors are needed to grow the program. Please donate in the secure SDI Store to keep this initiative thriving. Thank you for anything you can do to help support the next generation of spiritual directors and companions.
