New Year’s Labyrinth
NEW YEAR’S LABYRINTH
Sunday, January 1, 2012, 12 pm – 5 pm
The labyrinth is an ancient tool for prayer. Similar to a maze, but with only one path into the center (so you can’t lose your way), the labyrinth has guided spiritual pilgrims on their journeys for at least 4,000 years.
It began to be used in Christian churches as early as 350 CE, and has made a comeback in recent years by offering a chance to take time out from busy lives to reflect and pray in a different way. Walking a labyrinth offers the opportunity to pray with our bodies. It has been a meaningful practice for many throughout the ages.
Everyone is welcome to drop in anytime between 12:00 and 5:00pm on New
Year’s Day (following our regular worship). Brewster Hall will be transformed into a beautiful, sacred space for prayer and reflection.
