Come Walk With Us!
The labyrinth was purchased by the families of Phil Sweers and Mark Tue in their memory and was dedicated and blessed on Sunday, June 16, 2024. The initial Walk the Labyrinth day was held June 25, and the labyrinth will be available for walking once a month from 3-7 p.m. in the Fellowship Hall going forward.
Watch the calendar for the specific date each month. Pastor Kristin will lead the walk from 3-3:30 p.m., but you are welcome to come use the space anytime during that 4-hour block. Guidelines for using the labyrinth are available. Come find some sabbath rest through this calming, meditative practice.
