INTERFAITH
TRAILS
|
| |
The
center maintains a series of trails throughout the property.
The paths wind around the main buildings and disappear into
the woods and fields. All together, the trails are several
miles in length and suitable for quiet reflective walks. Signs
with sayings from world religions, veiled among the trees,
and flowers blooming along the path, remind us of the beauty
of nature. There are meditation huts and benches
along the way for rest and contemplation. |

SACRED
SITES |

 The
Labyrinth, Medicine Wheel, Interfaith Trails, Hidden Shrines,
Sacred Fires, Drumming Circles and Meditation Huts are a few
sacred sites found on the beautiful landscaped and wooded
15 acres of the property. Weekend programs describe the sacred
nature of ritual and ceremony, as practiced in world faiths
and rites of passage worldwide. A guided meditation walk on
the labyrinth is always popular with our visitors. Flyers
