Active Hope: Through the Lens of the Labyrinth
September 17, 2025 @ 9:00 am – 12:00 pm CDT
This contemplative program invites you to journey through the soulful practice of walking the labyrinth, guided by Joanna Macy’s Work That Reconnects. Together we’ll explore gratitude, honoring our pain, seeing with new eyes, and moving forward with renewed courage.
Through guided exercises, reflection, and conversation, the labyrinth becomes a living metaphor for personal and collective transformation. Weather permitting, portions will be outdoors, deepened by the beauty of nature. Gentle walking is included; the program is limited to 10 participants.
Open to all, this sacred space offers clarity, renewal, and active hope in the face of uncertainty. No prior experience required.
Our morning ends at noon, but you are welcome to bring a lunch and stay for more conversation together on the patio in the St Clare Garden
