Here are the annotated pics of our temporary labyrinth…

(Some of these were taken with the flash on to show things better—some were not to show the black-lit ambience of the room.)

 

¨       This was the sign-in station with an FAQ about the Labyrinth.  You can find the FAQ by clicking here.

 

¨       This was the first station where they prayed the Lord’s Prayer

 

¨       This is a wider shot of the room.  I used white cord and simple duct tape to map out a non-traditional labyrinth.  The 7-ring Cretan-style didn’t fit in the room, so I’ll have to do that some other day in a wider room (I discovered that you likely need a large room to do that, perhaps as big as our lobby or west worship center.

 

¨       This was the second station.  They chose a name for God used in the bible (in the original Hebrew) and then wrote that or another name that they needed God to be for them.  It was really amazing to see all these names on the wall in everyone’s handwriting.  I put the dry-erase markers up with plasti-tak on the caps.  I left this one up.

 

¨       This was the third station where they lit a candle for someone that needed to come to Christ or needed healing.  The one on the right without a flash better shows what it looked like.  We went through hundreds of tea-light-candles which are a great thing to use for this.  I found them for just 3 bucks for a whole huge bag at Hobby Lobby.

 

¨       This was the fourth station: communion and giving to the poor.  They could dip in the first cup or drink from the common cup (I like to have both options as some people find a great experience in the common cup – which also retained a sense of “community” in the participants.

 

¨       This was the fifth station – a very meaningful time of placing large fish hooks in a cork cross.  People thought of someone they hadn’t forgiven and pictured that unforgiveness being like a “hook” in their cheek holding them back.  They walked through the forgivness prayer step of Freedom in Christ and then placed the hook in the cross.  This station was completely replicated from our last Lobby worship gathering.

 

¨       This was the sixth station where they prayed through the armor of God.

 

 

¨       This was the final station where they posted a praised to God and some also posted a prayer request for others to pray for.  I left this one up.
