About project:
The Labyrinth project is to establish a place to support the people by having a place to meditate, pray and find peace. We would love to form labyrinths at schools, in neighborhoods, at any and all other public/private spaces.
Story on how this project came about . .
While partaking in on a Native American styled Vision Quest that was facilitated by the experience wilderness expert, I was sent me off in the mountains of Chochise, Arizona, With only water to drink, no food and spent four days in solitude. Day 3 i rounded up the energy to clear out this patch of land that was just weeds rocks and small boulder type of rock to make a labyrinth. I knew it had to be done. Laying one rock at a time, each with a prayer of its own, there became my first ever prayer labyrinth.
I walked this path multiple times a day. I used it for meditation, to help remember all the prayers that were laid into each stone, and to continue praying for what I want in my life. When I came back from the mountain. I felt I needed to continue making these paths with/for the hearts and souls of others to help them while their in there quest through life.
