Labyrinths are my places of quiet contemplation. I generally receive three lessons or “insights” that help focus my thoughts, sometimes more, sometimes less.
I’ll be sharing what I’ve learned from my walks in my “Labyrinth Lessons” posts.
Thursday, September 27, 2022 was an labyrinth adventure day for me, and my third and final stop of the day was at Country Homes Christian Church, located at 8415 N Wall St in Spokane, WA 99208. I was pleasantly surprised to see a man ahead of me walking to the labyrinth. He wasn’t there very…
Tuesday, September 27, 2022 Wyakin Park was my second (semi) successful labyrinth walk of the day. It is located in a wooded nature area near 6701 N Assembly St. in Spokane, and was created by Friends of Wyakin Park. I arrived in mid-afternoon, around 3:15 pm. and I have to confess that it was less…
Labyrinth location: The Episcopal Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist; 127 East 12th, Spokane, Washington 99202 Date: September 27, 2022 around 2:20 p.m. This is my third attempt at a labyrinth walk today. The first one at Our Lady of the Lake Catholic Church in 9 miles Falls, WA did not exist (I couldn’t even locate…
I’m always disappointed when a church provides no information on their website about their labyrinth, its purpose or how to utilize it. Unfortunately, most of the labyrinths I have visited at churches have little or no signage or information about them. All Saints Episcopal Church, located at 1322 Kimball Ave, Richland, WA 99354, gets a…
A few hours after my walk in Gresham, Oregon, I found myself stopping in The Dalles, Oregon. The Dalles, which is located on the shores of the Columbia River near the Deschutes River, has a labyrinth at Mid Columbia Health Center. If I remember reading about this correctly, the labyrinth doubles as the hospital’s helipad…
September 2022. I felt like my life and my faith were in chaos, and getting worse, not better. I was just out there, winging it… wondering if everything I had believed in faith was just a misguided fantasy. There were a few good days, but mostly there were days where I was just faking it…
Sunday, September 25, 2022 found me in the Tigard/Beaverton/Portland area, hanging out with my second family (the Hipsher and Becker clans). While traveling between houses, I took a detour between their two households to stop at St. James Episcopal Church in Tigard so that I could walk the labyrinth there. Here is what I ‘heard’: …
6/12/2022 3332 N Meridian Ave OKC @ 2:20 pm In a previous post, I had indicated that the Rock Ridge labyrinth was the last one we explored before leaving OK & TX, but as I worked through my labyrinth list and wrote this post, I realized I was wrong (and edited that post). The United…
My third labyrinth visit of the day was just after lunch on 06/12/2022 (around 1:20 PM) at a private home in Oklahoma City, OK. The home is listed on the labyrinth locator website, and when I had reached out to them to ask if I/we could walk the labyrinth and they were very welcoming and…
June 12, 2022 marked the end of an epic week in Texas with my friends Andrew and Mikayla. The three of us had met up in Texas to be extras in episode 8, season 3 of The Chosen TV series, and had spent spent some LONG days on the set in the blazing Midlothian sun.…
June 12, 2022 found us (Andrew, Mikayla and me) at Mercy Hospital, located at 4300 West Memorial Road, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73120. It was the first of FOUR labyrinth walks that day, and this first walk was in the late morning- around 11:30 am. The path we all walk has some pain as part of…
I enjoyed traipsing down memory lane, reflecting on this labyrinth walk from 6/8/2022. I was in Texas to be an extra in the filming of an episode of The Chosen, and spending the time with two people I love so very much – Andrew and Mikayla Wilson. We had an afternoon free and they cheerfully…
