"Give it up!"

Philippians 4:4-7 

Does life have you STRESSED OUT??? Are un unable to find any peace??? Has self-reliance ceased to be sufficient??? If so, you are invited to Give it up!

labyrinth:

a pattern, generally two-dimensional, in which a series of lines
delineate a pathway which is meant to be walked

Labyrinths are thought to restore a sense of equilibrium and balance, which can be especially helpful when our lives seem overburdened or out of kilter. The Christian church of the middles ages saw labyrinth walking as a spiritual tool for prayer and walking meditation or receptive prayer, quieting the mind so one could listen to God. After walking, many people have reported a sense of peace, relaxation and well-being. Some have also claimed emotional healing, such as dealing with grief or contemplating one’s next step in life.

We Invite You to Walk the Labyrinth

Friday, July 16 ~ 3 - 8 PM

Saturday, July 17 ~ 8 AM - 8 PM

Childcare will be available during these hours. The Labyrinth is being hosted by First United Methodist Church of Keller’s Faith Community Nursing.
