CELEBRATING

Labyrinth

Labyrinth is a means for prayer. Starting on the outside of the labyrinth, the praying person enters the labyrinth and prayerfully follows its winding paths to the centre. In the quiet, spiritual centre there is opportunity for rest, prayer, and preparation for the journey back to the world. For many walkers, the Labyrinth is a spiritual practice - for meditation, healing or insight. Unlike a maze, there is only one path, leading to the centre and it is then followed back to the beginning. The labyrinth is for all ages. Children and youth will benefit from the experience of "centering." Adults will find the labyrinth a helpful tool to cultivate a more prayerful way of being.

The labyrinth has become a reality on SHUC’s gymnasium floor! It was dedicated for use on January 19, 2003. It is available for meditation and prayer from 9:00am to 10:30am daily (except Thursday mornings), Sundays from 8:00am to 9:45am and Mondays from 4:30pm to 6:30pm, or by appointment.
