Walking the Labyrinth

Labyrinth Open Walk

Wednesday June 6th, 6:30pm - 8:00pm, Social Hall

This will be the last Open Walk before the summer break. Come anytime before 7:45pm. Wednesday Open Walks resume in September. If you would like to experience outdoor labyrinths over the summer, we have booklets for purchase. You can also go to Spring Labyrinth Twin Cities Tour to check out a special event taking place on Saturday May 19th.

Our open walks are individualized. Held on the first Wednesday of each month, September through May. Come at 6:30 or 7:00 or whenever, to the Social Hall. Walk at your own pace, stay as long or short as you like. Allow at least 15 minutes minimum for a full fast walk. See you soon!

Special Option: Finger Labyrinths

The Labyrinth Committee has two wooden finger labyrinths to share with church members at times of need, especially when it is not possible to walk the labyrinth at church. Constructed of cherry and maple wood, they are a beautiful presence that can serve as reminders of the community that cares for you. The committee has also created laminated labyrinths for church members who are unable to come to church. Contact: Ann Hobbs, 763-546-3337, earth.mom@comcast.net.

Testimonial: This winter, I have been using a laminated finger labyrinth as a regular morning practice. Tracing the path of the labyrinth with the eraser end of a pencil works best for me. I follow the pattern of the labyrinth twice, first with my writing hand, the second time, with my non-dominant hand.  For those of us who have a hard time quieting our minds, following a pattern like the labyrinth is very effective. Even as it becomes familiar, the twists and turns calm and quiet us. The advantages of a finger labyrinth are its easy availability and the relatively short commitment of time. Daily practice with the labyrinth provides an effective entry into a meditative state. -- by Monica Tahibnapis
