Labyrinth

“Stand at the crossroads, and look, and ask for the ancient path, where the good way lies, and walk in it and find rest for your soul.” Jeremiah 6:16

The Labyrinth is a pathway of ancient design, emblemantic of the spiritual journey. Our Labyrinth is an 11-circuit medieval Labyrinth, a replica of the 13th century design found in Our Lady of Notre Dame Cathedral in Chartres, France. The Labyrinth offers a unique way to pray and can open one to the deep sense of the Sacred. They are found in many religious traditions and cultures. Walking the Labyrinth serves many purposes, including healing, discernment and giving thanks. The spiraling motion with its gentle right and left turns can relax and center the mind. A Labyrinth is not a maze; it has only one path and requires no decisions except to enter and walk… We offer our Labyrinth Peace Garden to you as a place for quiet reflection and communion and invite you to make this a place of spiritual pilgrimage.
