Grace H Pong
I have a strong passion for holistic well-being. Born in Hong Kong with a deep family background in performing arts. After completing the bachelor of fine arts (BFA) in Hong Kong, my passion for the body and movement drove me to switch my career of performing arts to another form of arts which is muscle & massage therapy. Later on, the strong belief in the holistic aspect of life, and responded to God’s calling, I went into the study of spiritual direction and psychology.

Spiritual Direction/Spiritual Companioning---
What is spiritual direction?
“Spiritual direction takes place when two people agree to give their full attention to what God’s doing in one of their lives and seek to respond in faith.” -Eugene Peterson
In your faith journey do you sometimes have a desire to talk with someone who can support you to discern and foster attentiveness to God’s presence in your life? In times of decision, do you need someone who has a deep prayer life to come alongside and to assist you in listening to God? Do you have a longing and interest to deepen in your relationship with God through prayer, but need some guidance along the way?
For example, here are some of the questions that you might be experiencing in your faith journey:
- Am I comfortable in God’s presence? What am I praying about?
- What is happening in my life? How am I responding to what is happening in my life?
- Where do I see God active in my life happenings? Who is God for me?
- How do I deal with answers I don’t like to the above questions?
Spiritual Direction is a process whereby a spiritual director assists another in making sense of their experience with God. Provide resources to encourage people in their prayer lives. Also, to suggest spiritual practices that can be applied in daily living.
I love spiritual direction, because it is such a simple practice of creating space for people to notice and encounter God, yet it has such profound results. Seeing a spiritual director and becoming one myself have been one of the most transformational experiences of my life! As a trained spiritual director, I view myself as a tour guide in your soul-journey who helps you to see some of the landmarks that God has presented in your life. I believe God is the one to guide our session and God is the ultimate guide in your life.
