Candy will give you tools you can use to help reduce stress, improve memory, lower

blood pressure, and many more benefits of the calming, walking meditation used in the

labyrinth. Candy Ruffolo is certified in therapeutic yoga, as well as mindfulness meditation. She

has 20+ years of experience teaching yoga.

With many helping hands, Lakeshore has unearthed the labyrinth in our backyard -

between the Garden of Remembrance and Lincoln Park. The labyrinth is available to

anyone who needs a place to meditate or pray. Walk the wide grassy path between the

bricks.

Stop in our church office to pick up guides to different meditation themes, make a

reservation for your group to use the labyrinth - or let us know if you need something.

Labyrinths guides available are for:

Labyrinths are designed to represent our life journey, but provide a direct walk without

dead-ends or wrong turns. Everyone can be successful walking a labyrinth – slowly

finding your way in – pausing in the center – then finding your way out. Walking the

labyrinth helps us step away from the busyness of life and take time to contemplate

creation, or encounter ‘a holy presence’ – our Creator. The Eagle Scout who created the

labyrinth copied the design from a French monastery, in the tradition of contemplative

spirituality.
