Compassionate support for your spiritual journey
I'm Andrea Manor, a Spiritual Director here to journey with you as you discover God's active presence in your life.
About Me
Andrea lives in Nashville, TN with her husband Elijah, their two teenage sons, and their dog. Their eldest daughter is currently pursuing her studies at college. Andrea believes that God is always present and actively working in our lives and the world, even when we are unaware of it. Andrea's passion lies in helping people become more aware of their thoughts, feelings, and body responses, guiding them to invite Jesus into these spaces for a closer journey through life.
Andrea provides individual monthly direction, facilitates various spiritual direction groups, directs silent retreats, and offers the Spiritual Exercises of Saint Ignatius of Loyola in daily life. She serves as a program director with the Spiritual Direction Training Program and manages the Spiritual Exercises program at Dovehouse Ministries. During her free time away from spiritual direction, Andrea cherishes moments with her family, explores nature through hiking, and expands her world through books.
