Sr. Lui confirmed the program is ecumenical in its focus, with one of its recent graduates taking a role as a Methodist pastor.

"Total cost for the program is $4,600, which includes tuition, room, meals and retreats."

Add extortion to the charges of indifferentism, heresy, sacrilege etc

It's these same people, I suppose.

Look what they link to from the "Prayer and Preaching" section of that page:

"The Earth Charter is an authoritative synthesis of values, principles, and aspirations that are widely shared by growing numbers of men and women in all regions of the world."

There's that nasty word synthesis again. Imho, Pope St. Pius X selected that word very carefully to use in his description of Modernism.

“New Cosmology,” “Feminist Theology,” and “Enneagram Spirituality”

Condemned, condemned and condemned. From the Vatican, a study is prefaced by:
These reflections are offered primarily to those engaged in pastoral work so that they might be able to explain how the New Age movement differs from the Christian faith.

While the article is pretty much Church-speak vanilla, the references are quite explicit. A good article in depth showing the incompatibility of the Enneagram with Catholicism is published here.

Oy vey! This reads like handouts various "spiritual" New Age, etc. types used to accost people with at airports, bus stops, and shopping centers when I was in my teens and twenties. All they tried to do was put a coating on it and call it Christian (much less Catholic). This could also be a program at many ECUSA "spiritual centers" or whatever they now call themselves.

When are the 1960s-1970s ever, ever, ever going to end! These people are "spiritual directors?!?!?!" The direct people, alright, and I don't think to Jesus and toward Heaven is what they have in mind in their program (except as a cover for the agenda). They feed people cotton candy when the need is for a good steak or country ham.

This is just another group of "Social Justice" Dominicans. With the awesome spiritual heritage of the Dominicans and the Catholic Church this phony new age theology that they offer instead this is just a massive betrayal and rip off.
