Labyrinth Ministry

A labyrinth is a sacred path and space used for prayer, meditation, and contemplation. Unlike a maze, a labyrinth has a single path to the center and back. It is walked in an attitude of prayer and meditation.

The CHARTRES Labyrinth at LUMC is thirty-six feet wide and is made of canvas. It was ordered from Labyrinth Enterprises and it was painted by a group of painters at LUMC. It was opened in May 2007 to the congregation and to the public. For groups of 10 or more, please call the church office at 803-359-6838 to register.

For more information contact Lynn Silvey or the church office at 803-359-6838.

The Walk to Emmaus experience begins with a 72-hour short course in Christianity, comprised of fifteen talks by lay and clergy on the themes of God’s grace, disciplines of Christian discipleship, and what it means to be the church. The three-day Emmaus course in Christianity moves church members to new levels of openness and commitment as Disciples of Christ. Participants gain fresh understanding of the meaning of their faith. People re-experience the gift of God’s love and emerge from the Emmaus weekend with a desire to pass that love on to others. The course is wrapped in prayer and meditation, special times of worship and daily celebration of Holy Communion.

The Midlands Emmaus Walk takes place in Batesburg-Leesville at the Nazarene Camp.

To get involved in Emmaus, each person must have a sponsor who has already attended Emmaus him-or herself. For information about how to attend these upcoming Walks or just some information about Emmaus, contact any of the 50+ LUMC members who have attended or visit  http://www.midlandsemmaus.com/.
