Personal Growth Workshop

Art & Spiritual Direction

Spirit Song NC, Hickory NC - Spiritual Direction

Facilitated by Sara Nafziger-Shelly & June Nafziger-Eberly

Purpose of Workshop:
To meet with others to recognize the Holy Spirit in each person’s life


Group Spiritual Direction is a process in which a group of people meet in an atmosphere of prayer to pay attention to the movement of the Holy Spirit in their lives.

The making of prayer cards using the SoulCollage® process is an avenue for coming close to God through art as prayer. The making of the art is an intuitive process. The use of images, intuition and imagination helps us to express our prayers in ways that go beyond what words can often express.

We may not know where we go, but we can trust the Spirit’s leading.

Because we can feel belonging only if
we have the courage to share our most
authentic selves with people, our sense
of belonging can never be greater than
our level of self-acceptance.

SoulCollage® is an intuitive and creative collage making process. Using simple materials, you create a personlaized deck of cards, with each card representing a part of your personality or soul. This expressive arts practice can be done individually or in groups. This develops creativity and intuition, encourages self-discover, and provides personal guidance.

This process is a way to tend soul and explore psyche at the same time. Some of the images you select will show parts various parts of you – such as the nurturer, the organizer, the dancer, or your scared inner child. Other images may be mysterious or mythic. These images represent the archetypes who may seem larger than life – mysterious and mythic. You may not fully understand why you are drawn to certain images, but this will be revealed to you as you go through process of creating your own special cards.

Founded by Seena B. Frost, SoulCollage® meet each person wherever they are on this journey called life. You do not need to be an artist to make SoulCollage® cards. Anyone can create and enjoy this powerful practice.
