The Labyrinth at Our Saviour

about

Seeking funds for the construction of a labyrinth behind Our Saviour Lutheran Church, 6340 No. 4 Road, Richmond, British Columbia. It will be located next to the pollinator garden. Once completed it may be used by the community, including family members of hospice patients and the staff of Rotary Hospice House, located 200 m to the south.

Labyrinths are ancient forms of spiritual expression. They represent in miniature, the spiritual pilgrimage or journey that one walks over a lifetime. As one starts walking the labyrinth, one releases everyday worries, clearing the mind and opening the heart until reaching the centre and seeking there, union with the divine and peace within. On retracing one’s steps from the centre back to the outside of the labyrinth, the walker moves back to daily life with a renewed sense of connection with the divine, nature, others and oneself. This process is often summarized as involving Remembering, Releasing, Receiving, and Resolving.A place for spiritual reflection, the labyrinth will be available to members of all faith traditions in Richmond and the Lower Mainland; for patients, their families, and staff at Rotary Hospice House; for all experiencing grief and loss; and anyone in the wider community looking for a place for spiritual reflection and contemplation.Located at Our Saviour Lutheran Church, the labyrinth honours the legacy of pastor Pastor Ken Harris.
