Building a Pathway to Spiritual, Mental, and Physical Wholeness

A labyrinth is a place to open your heart and quiet your mind, a place of reflective meditation. It is a pilgrimage where you can discover your true self and your relationship to whatever you hold sacred. 

A labyrinth can be a path for those who feel lost to feel found. It is a space for renewal of the mind and the spirit. A labyrinth fosters an experience of peace and stillness. It is a place of healing the body and the mind. Walking a labyrinth allows you to set aside the cares of the world to focus completely on self.

A labyrinth promotes a simple, directed, open air, meditative exercise. It moves one inward to the center and then, rejuvenated, moves one back outward into the world.

Because you see the path ahead in a labyrinth, you cannot get lost or trapped in it as you would in a maze. This allows you to focus on a contemplative journey as you walk.

Our labyrinth is open to individuals and groups daily from sunrise to sunset. Your journey can take 10 – 20 minutes or it may last as long as you need. The shared, respectful use of the labyrinth includes individuals or groups engaged in a meditative, reflective and respectful journey.

Personal Thoughts From Congregational Members

  • “Walking a labyrinth is an outdoor worship experience that one cannot get inside a church.”
  • “Walking the labyrinth leaves me feeling refreshed and renewed.”
  • “…an opportunity to deepen our spiritual practice and further our sense of community…”
  • “The UUCCH Labyrinth was placed on a sacred spot, the site of our former church. Walking our labyrinth is a connection to the past as well as a path to the future.”
