Where God’s Story Meets Our Story

Rooted in stillness and shaped by silence, I create spaces where stories breathe, souls listen, and women meet God in the quiet — seeking meaning in the everyday and tracing the sacred thread that runs between dust and eternity.

Together, we slow down, listen for the still small voice, and seek what is holy as we move toward what is whole.

Join me as a fellow sojourner on the ancient path — to know, love, and follow Christ.

Live and Lead from the Inside Out

Journey though Contemplation

SoulWork Sanctuary

SoulWork Sanctuary is a podcast with Rev. Dr. Patrice Gerideau — a sacred pause in your week to breathe, reflect, and reconnect with God.

Through scripture, story, and soul care practices, Patrice offers short, reflective episodes that invite you to step inside the sanctuary and do what Katie Cannon called “the work your soul must have.”.

The Story Behind SoulWork Sanctuary
The Story Behind SoulWork Sanctuary

The story of how SoulWork Sanctuary came to be — born from Katie Cannon’s question, “What is the work your soul must have?” — and reflects my hope that each episode offers a moment of sanctuary, a breath of God’s presence, and an invitation to tend your soul.

The Vine Still Finds You
The Vine Still Finds You

When a vine pushed through my kitchen window, I remembered what I had forgotten: we are never as disconnected as we think. Sometimes the Spirit finds us in the quiet, even behind closed blinds.

One Pen, One Guitar, & One Voice
One Pen, One Guitar, & One Voice

Sometimes less is more. In songwriting and in life, God calls us to lean into our strengths and listen for His voice. One pen, one guitar, and the One Voice that matters—where are you being called to create space for God?

Journey with Patrice

Writer. Theologian. Spiritual Director.

Hi, I’m Rev. Dr. Patrice Gerideau — a writer, theologian, and spiritual director who believes our stories are sacred spaces where God meets us. I help women slow down, listen for God, and discover the wholeness that’s already within them. Whether I’m guiding a SoulWork gathering, writing on the page, or sharing on my podcast, my heart is to create spaces where words heal and souls can flourish.

Let’s walk this journey together.

Join the Journey

I am called to write

To sit with mystery

To call out to eternity

To help pen breathe words

Ancient and new
