Labyrinth – Prayer Walk
at Centenary UMC on
Wed November 30th from 12-2pm and 7:30-9:30 pm

“Your life is a sacred journey. And it is about change, growth, discovery, movement, transformation, continuously expanding your vision of what is possible, stretching your soul, learning to see clearly and deeply, listening to your intuition, taking courageous challenges at every step along the way. You are on the path… exactly where you are meant to be right now… And from here, you can only go forward, shaping your life story into a magnificent tale of triumph, of healing of courage, of beauty, of wisdom, of power, of dignity, and of love.”
by Caroline Adams

Labyrinth is an ancient tool used for prayer and meditation. It is not a maze or a puzzle to be solved. You do not get lost in it. It is an intentional prayer walk that one embarks on to find the hearts true home and that is in GOD. There will be 6 stations around the labyrinth guiding us through the journey of Advent. You can walk, you can sit and you can kneel and pray as you feel. Instructions will be provided to guide you through the walk. There will be soft music playing in the background to lead you in prayer. You are encouraged to walk the Labyrinth first and then visit the stations around it. Silence and reverence is appreciated. The Labyrinth walk is for people of all ages. It is free. So come and find the quiet center in the crowded lives we live.
