You are cordially invited to join us for our final summer morning labyrinth walk on Thursday, Aug. 11 at 11 a.m. as we can walk the Labyrinth in the Field together. The majestic stone labyrinth is located on the grounds of Edgecomb Community Church.

Labyrinth walking is an ancient practice used by many different faiths for spiritual centering, contemplation, and prayer. When entering the path of a labyrinth the recommendation is to walk slowly while quieting your mind and focusing on a spiritual question or prayer. The labyrinth’s pathway is unicursal meaning there is only one path to the center and back out. The path twists and turns back on itself many times before reaching the center. When you reach the center there is only one way back out making it possible for your mind to focus on meditation or prayer. As a form of active meditation labyrinth walking has many benefits and provides a unique spiritual experience.

After the walk, we’ll have lunch together and spend time sharing our labyrinth experience. Please bring your own lunch to enjoy. Cookies, water, and lemon aid will be available as refreshments.

Edgecomb Community Church is located at 15 Cross Point Road, Edgecomb. For further information please contact the church at edgecomb.church@gmail.com or call the office at 882.4060. The event is free to all.

Our next labyrinth event will be our Full Moon Candlelight Labyrinth Walk to be held on Sunday, Oct. 9 from 6 to 7 p.m.
