Walk the Labyrinth - Sanctuary
9:00 am – 4:00 pm Walk the Labyrinth - Sanctuary Labyrinth Walk
A favorite tradition for many at United Church of Gainesville is walking the labyrinth during particularly sacred times in the church year. Labyrinths look a bit like mazes, but they are not meant to trick the user; there is only one way in, one way to move forward. Walking the labyrinth allows individuals the opportunity to place one foot in front of the other, without needing to focus on anything but the next step. With that path laid out, the mind and spirit can reflect and remember, discern and pray.
The next time our United Church of Gainesville labyrinth will be laid out is around the celebration of All Saints Day, a time for remembering and honoring all those who have died, and whose physical presence we miss.
