Spiritual growth opportunities available through the Faber Center

The Faber Center offers various opportunities for faculty and staff members to move along their path of spiritual exploration and growth.

The inner life and the spiritual journey are places rich with possibility and promise. As we progress along this journey, we come to know ourselves with greater clarity and have a deeper relationship with God.

Find out more about yourself, find meaning and make better decisions. In addition, the Faber Center offers Spiritual Exercises, which are at the heart of the Ignatian tradition.

Those interested in making the Spiritual Exercises, one-on-one spiritual direction or learning more are invited to fill out the online form.
