Having spent twenty years as a Discipleship Director, Claire provides spiritual direction for followers of Christ seeking to develop healthy rhythms for life and ministry. She believes that the triune God loves us deeply, still speaks today, and desires us to understand His invitations for our lives. Claire is also trained to offer the Ignatian Spiritual Exercises and thrives in helping others embrace their unique identity in Christ. Over the years, Claire has learned that in understanding our spiritual journey and who God has made us to be, we can hear more clearly God’s call for each season of our lives.

God’s invitation led Claire and her husband, Chris, on an 18-year unfolding journey that culminated in the opening of Kerith Retreat, a beautiful space in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina. At Kerith, they host individuals and couples for silent or semi-silent retreats. For more information, see www.kerithreatreat.org.
