Walking a Sacred Path: Discovering the Labyrinth as a Spiritual Tool

People around the world are rediscovering the ancient practice of walking the labyrinth.  Unlike a maze which has many paths, a labyrinth has only one path which leads to the center.  While a maze is meant to trick and confuse you so you will lose your way, a labyrinth helps you find your way.  Labyrinths have been found around the world with the most famous one found in the floor of the nave of Chartres Cathedral in France.  Through the years people have used the labyrinth as a spiritual tool—a path of prayer, a walking meditation.

Join us at the church on Saturday, February 289, from 10:00 to 1:00 as we explore the labyrinth.  Miriam Lawrence Leupold, a trained labyrinth facilitator, will present a workshop on the labyrinth.  Come find out more about this ancient spiritual tool and have the opportunity to walk on a canvas labyrinth.  Workshop fee is $5.00

We hope as Lent begins that you will carve out time for this workshop.  Sign up in the church office by Wednesday, February 28, (info@firstpresalbany.org or
