WHAT IS A LABYRINTH? Labyrinths are usually in the form of a circle with a meandering but purposeful path; from the edge to the center and back out again. It is large enough to be walked into and it has only one path. The Labyrinth is a spiritual tool for meditation and healing. A growing number of individuals have rediscovered the labyrinth as a path to prayer, introspection and emotional healing.
WHO HAS WALKED THE COVENANT LABYRINTH? The Labyrinth at Covenant Presbyterian Church arrived in June 1998. The design is a classical eleven-circuit Labyrinth. The best known example of this Labyrinth remains embedded in the floor of Chartres Cathedral in France. In the past few years many have walked and found comfort from the Labyrinth. Walkers have included...parents, camp counselors, grieving family members, cancer victims, confirmation class participants, AA members, children...individuals of all ages and concerns.
Anyone and everyone can walk and appreciate the Labyrinth. Labyrinth walks at Covenant Presbyterian Church are open to all. Individuals unable to walk the Labyrinth may benefit from a laptop finger Labyrinth available as needed by contacting the church. To schedule individual or group Labyrinth walks or for more information contact the church at 346-6400.
