The labyrinth, the seventh of it’s kind in the United States, was built using a copyright design by Clare Wilson from South Africa. Since that initial labyrinth installation, Covenant has continued to explore the labyrinth journey, and now has the only “Labyrinth Park” in the United States, with five labyrinths for walking meditation and prayer.

  • Journey with Us: the walk to to the center, with others around you can be a quieting or emptying yourself, letting go of the details of everyday live, knowing that you are not alone, struggling with a life challenge.
  • Journey with God: (Resting in the Center) time spent in the center meditation, praying or simply being of open mind and heart to receive whatever gift or insight may be present.
  • Journey with Others: the walk from the center may be experienced as awareness of a deep connection or communion with God, the Holy Spirit, or with Sacred energy at work in the world and with all God’s children.

After walking the Labyrinth many feel centered, peaceful or renewed to journey back into challenges in their life and the world.
