Abstract
The practice of group spiritual direction, its structure, method, and intention is discussed. It is theologically compared to the tradition of individual spiritual direction. Then the biblical and theological foundation in support of group spiritual direction is presented with concluding remarks about small spiritual community being the new "holy communion."
