Lakeshore’s Labyrinth

Lakeshore Labyrinth Events

All Saints Sunday, October 26

Losing a loved one is hard and everyone grieves differently - in your own time.  During our service on Sunday, October 26, we'll take time during the service to read names and light a candle for loved ones who have died since last All Saints Sunday. We will pray for God's comfort for all hearts that grieve. Please submit your loved one's name and the date of their death on the clipboard on the Welcome Center.

Weather permitting, we will also offer support for anyone who wants remember the loved ones you are missing by walking the labyrinth following each service.

Lakeshore Labyrinth Info

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 anytime between dawn and dusk.

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 are available for:

  • Difficult People and Situations

  • All That We Carry

  • Raise An Ebenezer

  • Remembering Our Baptism

  • A Simple Phrase

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.
