A special component of our grounds includes a labyrinth, designed to allow meditation as visitors move along the path.
Our labyrinth is one of just five in Montana registered with the World-Wide Labyrinth Locator.
Built in 2004 by dedicated members of the church, it follows the classical seven-circuit design and is aligned to true north, south, east, and west—inviting all to walk a path grounded in both nature and spirit.
A labyrinth is a moving prayer—a path that draws body and spirit together as you walk toward stillness at the center. Unlike a maze, it has no tricks or dead ends—just one continuous route in and out. It offers a moment of retreat, not escape, grounding us in the present while creating space for reflection and peace.
Labyrinths are ancient symbols of wholeness found in cultures across the world—from Greek palaces to desert carvings in Peru, Hopi weavings to medieval cathedral floors. For centuries, they have represented journeys of transformation, healing, and spiritual insight.
Prepare yourself before entering the labyrinth by relaxing your body, centering your breath, and reflecting on your inner self—perhaps offering a simple prayer. Walk at your own pace, mindfully and intentionally, moving quietly through the winding path toward the center. Once there, pause or sit on one of the benches to reflect, meditate, or contemplate scripture. When you’re ready, return along the same path, emerging renewed, grounded, and open to whatever comes next.
Your experience may unfold over time. Notice what lingers. Consider journaling your thoughts or planning a return walk.
