Here at Flossmoor Community Church we are fortunate to have two labyrinths, one outdoor and one portable for indoor use. The outdoor contemporary labyrinth, created by church member Tyler Thompson, provides opportunity for individual as well as group experience. The labyrinth is located in McAfee Garden behind the church building, in front of our Columbarium. A beautiful fountain and gardens enhances the attractive, landscaped garden in all seasons. The outdoor labyrinth is almost always open for self-guided labyrinth walks. 

 

The labyrinth at FCC is a sacred space set aside for the journey as an opportunity to look within, pray, reflect, negotiate new behavior, and explore one’s relationship with the Divine as one walks the winding paths.

 

The outdoor Labyrinth and McAfee Garden were dedicated on May 3, 2009. The following prayer was given at this Service of Dedication: 

 

“God of life’s journey, we dedicate the labyrinth as a means of our growth in faith, that as we prayerfully walk its winding path we might learn to know and love you with all our heart, with all our soul, with all our mind and with all our strength, and learn to trust you with the unfolding of our lives.”
