A month for moving.
I walked a labyrinth yesterday. Something I’ve done many times before, however, as always with the labyrinth it is different every time. This was one of what I call the “proper ones” without modern distractions on the path! (they are good in their own way, but really don’t compete). As I entered the centre, all the past and the future was before me, memories long hidden came flooding to the fore, hopes dreams and expectations for the journey out. We are always journeying in and out. I’ve just got to the outside and am about to start in again!! I start the journey inwards on the 17th, we move on the 26th (ish)
This has been growing now for some weeks, I only got around to photographing it today, I must admit we are feeding quite a few slugs and caterpillars, but it has been used a fair bit. (some of our choir were late into the service because they we walking it!!) The plan is to plant some flowers after the vegetables go over / get eaten.
During a prison visit this week, the chaplain recounted a story of how he had looked into the eyes of a sex offender and seen the face of Christ!!
It had the impact it deserved!
