The successful candidate will be a practicing Roman Catholic with an appropriate graduate degree, formal training as a spiritual director and giver of the Exercises, and at least 5 years of experience as a practitioner of these ministries. If not already a supervisor of spiritual directors, the person will be ready to begin training to become one. The person will have experience facilitating guided prayer in groups, retreats, and giving presentations on the Spiritual Exercises. The position offers compensation in the range of $70-$80 thousand a year and includes health care and other benefits. Holy Trinity values diversity and welcomes all candidates who meet these requirements.
