From November 17 through the following week, the labyrinth in the Episcopal Church garden will be dedicated to the theme of gratitude.

This focus may help walkers to contemplate and express appreciation for life’s blessings, including the special teachings that come through challenging experiences. This special intentional walk is timed to correspond with the week of Thanksgiving, here in the USA.

Also, on the weekend of November 17-18, donation boxes for the Food Bank will be on the porch of Emmanuel Parish Hall (they will be brought inside periodically during these two days).

Come at any time, alone or with others, dress warmly and add your intentions and gratitude to the energy field of the labyrinth. It’s quite an experience to walk the labyrinth in blustery weather, listening to the crying gulls, in full view of the stormy sea.
