In celebration of Pentecost and the birth of the Christian church, Parma Greece UCC, located at 1211 Manitou Road, is hosting a Labyrinth Walk on Pentecost weekend. The community is invited to participate in this walking meditation. The Labyrinth will be open on Saturday, May 27, from 7 to 9 p.m. and again immediately following worship on Pentecost Sunday, May 28, from approximately 9:15 a.m. to noon.
A labyrinth is a patterned path, often circular in form, used as a spiritual practice; it is not a maze. A labyrinth’s walkway is arranged in such a way that the participant moves back and forth in silence across the circular form through a series of curves, ending at the labyrinth’s heart or center.
The Labyrinth will be located inside the church’s Fellowship Hall which is transformed into a Sacred Space for this event that is free and open to the public. The Labyrinth Walk is unguided so walkers can arrive and leave at any time during the event. There will also be seating for those who prefer to meditate without walking the Labyrinth.
