The prayer labyrinth on the grounds of Nazareth Evangelical Lutheran Church invites you into a deeper walk with God. The prayer labyrinth is set under the trees near the corner of University and South Main. You are welcome to walk the prayer labyrinth at any time.
Origins of the Nazareth Prayer Labyrinth
Plans to construct a prayer labyrinth on the Nazareth grounds were initiated by long-time Nazareth member Geri Hanson. Following Geri’s death in 2005, the labyrinth was constructed using memorial funds donated by Geri’s family and friends.
Kinds of Prayer Walks
People walk the prayer labyrinth for many different reasons. Some walk to find peace and healing; others seek spiritual renewal and growth; still others simply wish to grow closer to God.
Some people prefer to take a specific approach to their walk.
• Intentional Walk
During an intentional walk, you pray about one need or concern in your life.
• Intercessory Walk
The purpose of an intercessory walk is to pray for others. Each time you reach a turn in the path, you begin a prayer for someone new.
• Meditative Walk
Thinking deeply about a passage of scripture while you walk is an excellent way to discover the meaning of God’s word and how it can be applied to your life.
