Lent 2024
Labyrinths have long been used by the faithful as a means of drawing close to God. The many twists and turns represent the winding reality of our spiritual journeys and the lived experience of many of our clients’ daily lives.
Whether walking a labyrinth or tracing your finger along a smaller version like the one here, you can begin by:
- Finding a calm space
- Offering a prayer based on the weekly meditations below or considering if you have a burden you want to release to God or a hope to place before Him.
- Placing your finger at the entrance
- Following the path slowly, mindful of His presence
- Pausing as you reach the center and reflecting on God’s guidance
- Tracing your way back out
Our hope for each of us is that as we return to life from the center of the labyrinth, we do so secure in the knowledge God walks with us at each step along the way.
Lenten meditations
These brief prayers are based on one of the Sunday readings during Lent. The complete calendar of readings during the season, can be found below.
As Lent begins, I surrender to divine guidance. Teach me, O Lord, reveal your truths. In humble trust, I navigate life's journey, remembering that Your steadfast love is my anchor. Amen.

Amidst seeking signs, I embrace the cross's wisdom. The world sees folly, but I know Your divine power even when I can’t see clearly. My faith rests in Christ crucified.

Our hearts are laid bare before You. Choosing the Son reveals God’s radiant path. Our paths forward become a testimony to the transformative power of embracing the Light.

Renew my spirit, O God, kindle within me a steadfast joy. Restore the melody of grace in my soul. As I embrace Your ways, let my life become a testament to Your redemption.
Psalm 51:12-13
Like Simon of Cyrene, we are each laden with surprising burdens. Transform these hardships. Father, and help us discover sacred intersections, where human struggle converges with the redemptive journey of Christ.
Mark 14:1-15:47
Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His steadfast love endures forever. In Easter's joy, let gratitude bloom. The risen Christ, our cornerstone, anchors our celebration. Hallelujah, for His love triumphs eternally, guiding us on paths of resurrection hope.
