About the Retreat Directors:
With a combined 40+ years of guiding people to deep well moments through retreat ministry, and with 20+ years of friendship, Becky and Stephanie are Ignatian-trained spiritual directors and busy women who share a love of Ignatian spirituality, reading books on the beach, strong coffee, and encouraging others to saturate themselves in the love of God.

She lives in Baton Rouge, Louisiana with her husband and three children.
