St. Dunstan's is busy
throughout the year. Here is a sampling of information
about how we spent some of last year. Come back and
visit this page often, as there is always something
happening at St. Dunstan's.

Spiritual Direction
Spiritual direction is
the process of accompanying people on a spiritual journey.
Spiritual direction helps people tell their sacred
stories drawn from their everyday lives. Spiritual
direction exists in a context that emphasizes growing
closer to God (or the Holy or a Higher Power). Spiritual
direction invites a deeper relationship with the spiritual
aspect of being human. Spiritual direction is not psychotherapy,
counseling, or financial planning. When a person feels
a pull to ask another to accompany them on this spiritual
journey, the spiritual director is a trained companion.
You
may discuss this with the Reverend Stephen Shepherd
or call Maureen Jenkins at 703-356-1881 (or contact
her via email sent to MEMJenkins@aol.com.) Maureen
has completed the Shalem Institute's Spiritual Guidance
program and meets with directees in the little conference
room outside the parish office. Click here for
more information.
Habitat House
St. Dunstan's again has been an active member of the
McLean Interfaith Coalition working annually to build
a house for a lower-income Habitat beneficiary. (For
more information, contact the parish administrator
at 703-356-7533.) The combined efforts of construction,
sandwich-making, fundraising and fellowship sharing
are true accomplishments for our parish and that
of the Coalition. Another opportunity for St. Dunstan's
to participate with the McLean Interfaith coalition
in constructing a house for Habitat will soon be
here. Parishioners should check The
Peal -- the announcements
in the parish bulletin -- for details.
