SPIRITUAL DIRECTORS

2010 - present

Fr. John Horgan
Archdiocese of Vancouver, BC


Upon Archbishop Emeritus Raymond Roussin's retirement, I took time to discern and pray for a new spiritual director to enter my life. I was referred to Fr. Horgan by Vancouver's Archbishop, the Most Reverend Michael Miller.

Father Horgan STL is pastor of Sts. Peter and Paul in Vancouver, B.C. Canada and hails from Boston Massachusetts. He received his Licentiate in Moral Theology from the Angelicum in Rome. He is also a medical ethicist and has been a series host on EWTN.

A well known speaker in Canada and the United States, Fr. Horgan serves on the Executive Board of the Catholic Educators' Resource Center in Vancouver.

Most Reverend Emeritus Raymond Roussin
Archdiocese of Vancouver, BC


Archbishop Raymond Roussin's insights on prayer, suffering and humility has been very much appreciated, especially during the past few years.

His quiet and Holy presence, gentleness, patience, in addition to his sharings on silent prayer and reflections on the poor have helped Jacqueline in her ongoing ministry. His dry humour has been much appreciated through the years.

"Steadfast in Faith"

Archbishop Roussin chose the motto Fortes in Fide
( Steadfast in Faith ), as something said of those whose lives are deeply rooted in the person of Christ.

2003 - 2008

Most Reverend Ronald M. Gilmore
Diocese of Dodge City Kansas. U.S.A

Under Bishop Gilmore’s direction and guidance, Jacqueline ceased her ministry of prayer in 2003 and began to explore silent prayer, the workings of the Holy Spirit in her life, as well as the Traditions of the Catholic Church. During that time, she enrolled in Graduate courses in Evangelization and Scripture at St. Augustine Institute in Denver, Colorado-while working full time.

Bishop Gilmore's guidance, patience, prayer, humour, generosity, and friendship is deeply appreciated. With his encouragement, he prepared Jacqueline to step out in faith.

The psalm tells the people to " 'be still and know' that I am God, exalted among the nations, exalted over the earth" (Ps. 46:10). For all Christians it is necessary to stop and put the aspects of our humanity aside, to praise God and to realize that He is God and that we respect Him for everything that we are and everything that we do comes from Him who is to be exalted over all the earth.

Fr. Michael Sweeney instructed Jacqueline on the various charisms of the Holy Spirit. Under his direction, she familiarized herself with the Called and Gifted workshops with the St. Catherine of Siena Institute.

Under Fr. Michael's direction, she travelled all over the United States and Indonesia where she prayed for priests and laypeople with great success.
