World Labyrinth Day Saturday, May 2.

“World Labyrinth Day (WLD) 2026 takes place on Saturday, May 2, 2026, marking the 18th annual international event hosted by The Labyrinth Society. Participants are invited to join a “rolling wave” of peace by walking a labyrinth at 1:00 p.m. local time, or by participating virtually, using finger labyrinths, or hosting local, in-person events.”

“In preparing your mind and body to walk a labyrinth, remember the three R’s: release, receive and return. Entering a labyrinth is the time to quiet the mind, let go of the details, distractions and extraneous thoughts.”

A Labyrinth is a sacred meditative walk. It leads you to the center of who you are. It is not a maze. You will never be lost. Just as you are never lost in God.

We will walk our labyrinth knowing PEACE is the WAVE that is circulating around the globe in every time zone at 1:00pm. We will have an opening ceremony and a closing ceremony. There will be time for sharing, discussion, art, journaling and sacred silence. Refreshments will be on the table. We ask everyone to bring a snack to share. Steve and I will have water available.

You are also walking the labyrinth for yourself. Be open to Divine insight and Divine ideas as you walk. Many who have walked our labyrinth said they went in with one idea, one prayer, and returned with a sudden jolt of Divine inspiration and direction. PEACE in our hearts and in our minds opens us up to Greater Good and a Greater Life.

Lauren Artress, an icon in Labyrinth knowledge says in her book,                          Walking a Sacred Path, “Labyrinths are powerful blueprints that order chaos, offer a path of prayer, heal deep wounds, serve as a place of solace, and transform human consciousness individually and in community. The labyrinth offers a spiritual exercise that becomes the path of life. It allows the wandering soul to find way to center, to find a way home.”

We will be walking at 1:00pm both individually, and with the world.

Dear Friends,

Many of you have children or grandchildren and enjoy playing games and spending time with them. As a “Grammie” it brings me JOY to be with my two granddaughters. I enjoy reading to them, playing hide and seek, magical pretend times, board games and sometimes a puzzle. When Peyton was only 2 or 3 we had a simple puzzle to put together. It was pretty easy and we did finally put all the pieces together. Without any one piece it would not be complete.

Even as adults if we have a table puzzle of 100 pieces or 500 or more, finding each one is so important to complete the puzzle. One simple piece becomes the most important part of the puzzle. We must connect ALL pieces of the puzzle to make the picture image complete!

A puzzle is a wonderful metaphor for LIFE.

Jeffon Seeley says, “You and I are an essential piece of the infinite puzzle of life. Our energy, our light, our simple being helps complete this moment of time we are in. The Infinite placed you here for a reason, for a purpose, and you are right where you need to be.

Each one of us is so important in the picture and connection of life.

Many people have questioned their existence. They ask:

• Why am I here?
• What purpose do I have?
• I am sad, so why should I be here?
• I am mad, so why should that person be here!
• I don’t know what to do, why should I be here?
• I have nothing to live for, why am I here?

When these questions arise, it is time to go deep within YOURSELF and connect with SOURCE, CREATOR, GOD for that is who you truly are. You are here because YOU are meant to be here. God within you, is guiding you, loving you, clearing your pathway, making good your dreams, showing you what you need to DO, BE and GROW. It is up to you to LISTEN to your still small voice, intuition and guidance. GOD cannot make you do anything. God can’t make you listen. ONLY YOU can listen and do and be the GOD Essence, piece of the Universal image, puzzle, connection in this world.

YOU are here. YOU count. YOU are needed. YOU Matter. YOU are LOVED by GOD and YOU have a reason and purpose to be here.

YOU ARE the PIECE that COMPLETES THE UNIVERSE.

We ALL are connected and need each other!

Dear Friends,

Spring is here! I hear birds singing and see flowers beginning to bloom. The grass seems greener and there is a new fresh fragrance in the air. I know our friends on the East coast are happily awaiting warmer weather and the blessings of Spring.

SPRING is a time of growth and renewal and this newness isn’t always easy.

The seeds we plant under ground, in order to grow, have to push their way up to the surface. They become beautiful flowers, plants and/or food. It takes strength to grow and survive. The little birds hatching have to break through their shells in order to continue to grow and become who they are just as the plants.

Years ago, when I taught Kindergarten, my teacher buddy and I got duck eggs from a farm on a field trip. The children were excited when we brought them back to the classroom to watch them grow. We provided all the right environment and lighting to keep the eggs warm. When it was time for them to hatch it took hours. We would watch a little crack come first, then there seemed to be a rest time. This would go on for hours. When the little ducks finally hatched they were wet and tired and had to rest. It was not easy growing bigger and stronger. They knew they could not stay in the shell, safe and comfortable. GROWTH takes strength, courage and hard work.

We, as humans are continually growing, whether it is physical, like children, or spiritual. Children sometimes have growing pains because their bodies are adjusting to new growth and well being. As adults we are always growing intellectually, emotionally and spiritually. Sometimes it is painful and hard work. Anything NEW, an activity, job, relationship takes strength and courage to move forward and experience it. Sometimes we want to stay put in our old and comfortable ways. However our very existence requires bravery to go forth, learn, grow and experience something NEW.

The Daily Word says, ” I pray for inspiration and the zeal to act upon it I then listen for any guidance and follow it, even if I find it surprising or a little daunting. This is how I grow, by pushing myself past comfort into new areas of discovery and endeavor.”

Today, if there is something you are being guided to try, pursue and experience, listen to that still small voice. SPRING into it, with the knowledge God is the Source of this inspiration and GOD within you KNOWS how to do it and what to do. You are never alone with new ideas, new activities, new jobs, new relationships!

HAPPY SPRING. HAPPY NEW ADVENTURES. HAPPY GROWTH!
