a Christ-centered labyrinth
experience
|
 |
open your eyes...
open your ears...
open your heart...
encounter God. |
Come for a unique prayer and devotional
experience that will help you draw closer to God. You will 'journey'
through the labyrinth over the span of about an hour, guided by a audio CD
that soars with provocative, devotional narration set against a worshipful
music backdrop. The eleven stations on your journey will lead you to
"let go" of the busyness, hurts, and distractions that can spoil
relationships; "center" your life on God; and reach out to the world with
Christ's love. You may come any time
while it’s open. Allow 1 hour minimum.

History of the Labyrinth |
|
Contemporary
labyrinths and this Prayer Path |
In recent years, labyrinths have been rediscovered
as a Christian spiritual tool. One meditatively walks the labyrinth to
reflect on their relationship with God, using it as a time for meditation
and prayer without distractions of the outside world. You put the one foot
in front of the other, following the path mapped out for you, not worrying
about choices of directions, just being able to concentrate on your prayers.
This Prayer Path is a contemporary version of a
cathedral labyrinth, which combines ancient Christian tradition with
contemporary music, meditations, art, media, and activities at intervals
along the path that help you focus on aspects of your spiritual journey with
God.
- The journey to the center is about removing barriers between
yourself and God.
- The Center is a place where you can pray and relax in God’s
presence.
- The journey out is about how your encounter with God affects your
relationship with yourself, other people, and the planet.
You walk the labyrinth carrying a CD player &
listening on headphones and can also read along in a Participants guide.
The prayers, meditations, background music, and
instructions are on the CD. Each track on the CD relates to one part of the
labyrinth, or station, which are clearly marked on the floor. |
