Spiritual formation is about the relationship between an individual and God. It is a journey of faith in which a person grows in trusting God as s/he becomes more and more rooted in God’s love. It is a journey of finding one’s true self and life mission in God. The fruits of such spiritual growth are faith, hope, love, joy, peace, spiritual freedom, humility, gratitude, and generosity. It is a journey of ongoing conversion, not only in the person per se but also in the communities one is involved.
The Spiritual formation program at LWCC aims to help individuals deepen their relationships with God through Drawing Close to God spiritual formation groups, spiritual direction, retreats, workshops and courses. It is experiential in essence that helps individuals notice God’s presence in their lives, pay attention to God’s leading, and respond to God’s invitation. It is life-transforming and life-giving. Rooted in God’s love gives the person a solid foundation for self-identity and self-worth, which is the linchpin for the whole-person well-being. Connecting with God helps one connect with oneself, others, and the communities/world. Gratitude from within enables the person to return the love received by loving and serving God and others. Spiritual formation is one of the critical elements of the LWCC service model that works for the whole-person well-being through connecting, empowering, and transformation.
Knowing the self is an integral part of spiritual growth. Psychological education, training, and psychotherapy services at LWCC help individuals understand themselves and enhance their self-awareness, empowering them to grow, overcome, and cope with life challenges. The knowledge of self and the impact of their life stories help open space for transformation and growth, which enables them to live out their vocations to love and serve God and others for the glory of God.
靈命塑造是關乎個人與上帝之間的關係。這是一趟信仰的旅程，在這旅程中，隨著越來越紮根於神的愛中，人對神的信任也會不斷增長。這是一個在神裏面尋找真我和人生召命的旅程。這種靈性成長的果實是信心、希望、愛、喜樂、平安、自由、謙卑、感恩和慷慨。這是一個持續更新、成長的過程，不僅體現在個人本身，也體現在一個人所參與的社區中。
泉源的靈命塑造事工旨在透過靈命塑造(靈修)小組、靈程導引、靜修、靈修工作坊和課堂來幫助個人進深與神的關係。靈命成長是以經驗為本的，透過不同方面幫助人在生活中注意到神的臨在，留意神的導引，並回應神的邀請。這是一個能夠改變生命並賦予生命的旅程。植根於上帝的愛為人的自我認同和自我價值奠定了堅實的基礎，這是整全生命的關鍵。與神結連有助人與自己、與他人和與社區/世界聯繫。因着神的愛而發自內心的感恩使人能夠作出愛的回應，愛與服事神和他人。靈命塑造是泉源服務模式的要素之一，該模式透過聯繫、賦權和轉化來實現全人福祉。
認識自己是靈命成長不可或缺的一部分。泉源的心理教育、培訓和心理治療服務幫助人了解自己，增強自我覺察，使人能夠成長、克服和應對生活中的挑戰。對自我的認識和明瞭人生經驗對自己的影響有助打開轉變和成長的空間，使人能夠回應人生召命，去愛與服侍神和他人，以榮耀神。

靈程導引是於神聖會晤中，靈修導師陪伴受導者一起聆聽、辨別及細察主心。 目的是幫助受導者：
On the spiritual journey, directees will become more aware of the presence of God and grow in trusting and loving God. Such a relationship enables them to open their hearts to God to experience the transformation, renewal, and healing and hence help them live out their true selves and become the person they are meant to be and love and serve God in return.
過程中，受導者漸漸能夠更覺察神的臨在，對神建立更深的信任與愛，讓神塑造生命，經歷生命的轉化、更新與醫治，活出真我，成為更合神心意的人，並以愛回應神。
