    Visit Elizabeth B. Ellmann Thank you to Christopher, Wendie, and Dwight for sharing the opportunities and the challenges of engaging people in spiritual direction programs. Several comments were made about the importance of word of mouth and creating communities of alumni that will help communicate the value of spiritual direction and formation. Whether you participated in the program today or not, what are the best ways you have found to communicate the value of spiritual direction and formation?
