Heart of Life Spirituality
Centre
Heart of Life Spirituality Centre began in 1983 as an initiative of the
Missionaries of the Sacred Heart.
Heart of Life Spirituality Centre is an oasis for the human spirit thirsting
for God. Our Centre offers spiritual direction, spirituality seminars
and the formation and supervision of spiritual directors and other pastoral
ministers.
Ours is a way of the heart by which we are drawn into and bonded with
other human hearts, the heart of humanity and, indeed, the sacred mystery
at the heart of all reality.
Our way of the heart rests on the contemplative attitude and authentic
discernment integral to all our ministries. This way of the heart is fundamental
to the rich tradition of Christian spirituality of which we are part.
