Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ:
One of the blessings we have in the Archdiocese of New Orleans is the Archdiocesan Spirituality Center. The Center forms women and men to serve as spiritual directors and also provides spiritual direction for those who are seeking it. I am pleased to support the work of the Spirituality Center and to thank the members of the staff for the many ways in which they are a blessing to the lives of the people of God in the archdiocese. Through their ministry, they accompany other disciples of the Lord Jesus in their journey with him as they focus on prayer and a life of discipleship.
One of the priorities of our Archdiocesan Synod is "Embrace Christ in every family, parish and ministry". The Spirituality Center is well prepared to assist us in fulfilling this goal.
I have been associated with the Spirituality Center for many years and continue to appreciate the important ministry that is provided. It is evident that more people are seeking spiritual direction. What a great blessing this is! Furthermore, we need more trained lay women and men as well as religious and clergy to serve in this important role of spiritual director.
Please know that I am grateful to you for your commitment to the Spirituality Center and all that we can do to support its ministry to the people of God in the Archdiocese of New Orleans.
Thank you for your life of discipleship and the continued support that you can give to this important ministry in our local Church.
Wishing you God's blessings, I am,
Sincerely in Christ,
Most Reverend Gregory M. Aymond
Archbishop of New Orleans
