Churches take part in labyrinth day
Three McMinnville churches will take part Saturday, May 1, in World Labyrinth Day, an annual event sponsored by The Labyrinth Society.
The idea is for people around the world to “walk as one at 1” 1 p.m. local time. According to the Labyrinth Society, this will “create a rolling wave of peaceful energy across the globe.”
Labyrinths are structured paths that follow the longest possible route from the perimeter of a circle to its center. While they may resemble mazes at first glance, local church representatives said they are actually the opposite: Mazes are all about confusion, while labyrinths are about finding your way and focusing on what’s really important.
