While on retreat at Ballyvalloo recently, I caught up with a friend I hadn't seen in a while - Fr Frank Downes. Frank is a Dominican priest who hails from Limerick and who works in the area of leading retreats and offering spiritual direction. Many of us think that spiritual direction is only availed of by priests and religious. However, more and more lay people are also discovering the importance of spiritual direction in their lives and the support of someone who can help them see the presence and action of the Lord in the bits and pieces of everyday life. In this interview, Fr Frank describes his work and encourages all people of faith to avail of the support of spiritual direction.
