Labyrinth In Memorial Church

The Office for Religious Life invites the public to walk the portable labyrinth in the sanctuary of Stanford Memorial Church each Friday between 8:00 AM and 1:00 PM. Please note: During routine maintenance in Memorial Church, the labyrinth will not be available for use on Fridays, August 17, 24 and 31. If life has YOU wandering aimlessly in circles, embark on a personal journey that's stood the test of time for thousands of years. Enter the labyrinth and discover that walking in circles can actually put direction back in your life — that the rhythm and simplicity of following a clear path can quiet your mind, help you find balance, facilitate meditation, insight and celebration. Labyrinths are not mazes. They have only one path to the center and back out, allowing walkers to release stress, to be quiet, and to focus internally. The process is a lesson in slowing down, in being mentally still enough to hear and be receptive to more than the jostling and jarring noises of everyday life. Wander aimlessly no more. Come! Discover how truly liberated your mind and spirit can be!
