Labyrinth
During the season of Lent, our members and friends are invited to pray while walking the Labyrinth’s twisting path. You can find the labyrinth in Room 209 and you are welcome to use it whenever the building is open. The labyrinth is a tool for walking meditation. It has one path that leads from the outer edge in a circuitous way to the center. There are no tricks to it and no dead ends. We hope that walking the labyrinth helps you find your way to God on the path of discipleship.
