Find a Deeper Connection

“Alice led Retreat in Daily Life when I attended; I couldn’t have asked for a better spiritual leader. She is a knowledgeable, kind, non-judgemental leader. I would recommend Alice for any project that needs a person of deep faith and love for others.”

“Alice is a dear, kind, sweet person and lovely both inside and out. She is honest and fair in her dealings with everyone she  meets both friends and strangers. I have known Alice as my teacher, as a facilitator and as my personal supervisor of my spiritual directing for the last 6 years and I have grown to love her very much. I value her opinions and her in depth discernment in all of life’s situations. She is a blessing in my life.”

“I’ve known Alice for about 4 years, both as a friend and as a peer in the ministry of Spiritual Direction, and as a Co-Facilitator for the Retreat in Daily Life (RIDL) experience.  Though I’ve known who she was for more than 4 years, I started spending almost weekly time with her about 4 years ago when I was a retreatant for the RIDL experience.  The following year I began training as a co-facilitator for RIDL, with Alice being the main facilitator.  She truly lives her spirituality, looking for God in all people and all situations.  When she shares her walk with God, you can tell it’s coming right from her heart. Although she’s also gifted with lots of head knowledge about Ignatian Spirituality, when she shares with or mentors others, one hears her heart, which is sincerely connected to God’s. 

She has mentored me in my role as Spiritual Director and my role as Co-Facilitator for RIDL. She gently invites me (and others) to always ask ‘what is God saying’ in this situation; as opposed to jumping in and telling me what to do.  She meets and accepts people exactly where they are, gently inviting them to see themselves as God sees them.  She’s been serving God in this ministry for many years. When appropriate, she openly shares what she’s learned  over the years which makes me most comfortable in seeking her input when I need guidance in this ministry.  She has much to offer to those seeking formation in the ministry of spiritual direction.”

“Alice Nahas is always well prepared for whatever she is doing.  She is smart, articulate, and creative with a very calm manner.  She will always give her best to whatever she is able to do. She presents with a great deal of confidence. “

“Alice Nahas is a spiritual director who reflects God’s love and compassion so completely that I have found it impossible to deny. Her constant urging of “Be gentle with yourself.” Is one that echoes in my mind. I am so thankful to have met Alice and to be able to include her counsel and comfort as resources for my spiritual journey. I experienced much spiritual abuse early on in my life and I have found it essential to relearn what it means to be in a relationship with God. The Divine Love that Alice reminds me of every time I look at her loving face is life changing.”

“When I think of Alice I think of the Mary-Martha story because I want to sit at her feet and soak up “the more.”  Alice is the most gentle, loving, peace-filled person, accepting all that life hands her gracefully.  That is all possible because she is so filled with our Lord’s grace it has no where else to go except out to those around her.

I have experienced Alice as spiritual director, supervisor, teacher, retreat organizer and friend and in each capacity she has left me eager to sit at her feet once again.  Alice is accomplished in all the areas of Spiritual Ministry but her biggest and best accomplishment is that she ‘preaches the Gospel always and when necessary uses words.'”
