The indoor Labyrinth walk at Emmanuel Parish Hall, December 2009
The Emmanuel Episcopal Church, on Eastsound’s waterfront, will open the doors of its Parish Hall to all, on Friday, December 21, from 4 until 6 p.m., for an indoor Labyrinth Walk.
Though the outdoor stone labyrinth is open at all times, the indoor Labyrinth Walk continues as a winter tradition. In a hall glowing with candles and filled with transcendent music, the canvas labyrinth beckons walkers of all faiths, or of none in particular, to pause from the busyness of the holiday season.
Take some moments to walk quietly, and reflect: on the past year and the coming one, on the return of the light at this shift of seasons, on one’s spiritual roots, on whatever is deeply important in your life. The labyrinth offers a path to renew a sense of peace. People of all ages are freely welcomed to come explore it.
