Building our Community

Each year, Spiritual Directors from around Europe (and a few of their Associate Member friends) make a pilgrimage to one of our home-countries. These annual gatherings are at the heart of the  SD-Europe community.

During these Annual Meetings, the local team introduce the spirituality of the hosting country and meals shared together will give us the opportunity to try the local cuisine. During the gatherings, we enjoy the company and talents of our fellow members. Good practices are shared, joys and sorrows heard. There is space for both silence and conversation.  

During the main gathering, the SD-Europe Annual General Meeting gives members a chance to help to steer and develop our community. There are also elections of those who offer to serve SD-Europe in working to fulfill these visions are appointed as members of Executive Committee are chosen.

In addition to these onsite meetings, there are online events and, in some countries, smaller local gatherings to allow members share and support each and other in growing.
