By far our most
popular programs have been the Labyrinth Walks scheduled monthly
throughout the year.
The one on August 12, was timed
to celebrate the Perseid Meteor Showers which occur yearly during
August. We began at 8:00 pm with a group prayer at the entrance
to the Labyrinth, followed by Sister Jane Belanger, OP offering
a blessing to each person as he or she entered the path.
Cloud cover
prevented our seeing either the full moon or the meteors, but we
were reminded that faith in the presence of the unseen moon and
meteors is an image of the faith which had prompted us to come here
to pray together to an unseen but always present God.
The next
Labyrinth Walk was held on Sunday, September 21, to celebrate the
Autumn Equinox. One of the largest groups we have ever had came
to welcome Fall and turn with the seasons on an evening that celebrated
the balance of day and night, heat and cold. |
