The Faith Garden, a wooded quietplace for silence retreats, walks of solitude on the trails; reflection, meditation and recentering spaces. You are invited to walk our newly built "Prayer Labyrinth, a path which leads to the center of a customized design and back out again. The Prayer Labyrinth can be used to facilitate meditation and/or prayer.
A labyrinth represents a “journey” to your very own center and back out again into the world. The walking a labyrinth has three stages: the inward journey (releasing); the center (receiving); and the outward journey (returning).
* Releasing (Purgation) - The inward journey is letting go of tensions; clearing your thoughts and shedding distractions of life and opening your heart and mind.
* Receiving (Illumination) - The center is a quiet space to “receive what is for you” through reflection, meditation and prayer.
* Returning (Union) - The outward journey is relationship - a time to feel connected with God, your Higher Power, or the healing forces.
