South Australia/Northern Territory Region
Members of ANSD in South Australia and Northern Territory engage in various spirituality centres and, for spiritual directors, one ecumenical association which combines ANSD membership,
membership of the Conference of Spiritual Directors (CSD) and membership of Companions in the Ignatian Spiritual Exercises.
We associate with various other groups concerned with spirituality in the community.
ANSD offers a 50% discount on ANSD membership for those who are current financial members of the Ecumenical Association for Spiritual Directors (ESDA), in recognition of dual membership for related ministry.
Its main emphasis is on professional development opportunities for spiritual directors and peer supervision groups to support their ministry. This association also networks various spirituality and retreat ministries.
The ANSD regional representative for South Australia/Northern Territory is Rachael Litchfield
