Walking The Labyrinth

13 families representing 16 adults and 29 childrenranging in age from toddler (2) to teen (sixth grade)took part in today's Labyrinth event.
(20 other adults also walked the path throughout the day!)

I snapped a few pics during the actual event with my iPhone.The pics aren't "prize worthy" but they let me discretely take pictures, while the kids were interacting with the labyrinth.
One of the families.Mom just posted on Facebook: It was amazing and the kids have talked about it all day.
It was a blessing to watch as the kids walked the pathin their own way.Some did everything "just" as it was written in the devo book.Others, well, got into their own groove and simply walked, ran, skipped or even ranalong the path.

I think one of my favorite things/quotes came from a first grader, who I love being around, but let's face it - like every first grader, struggles a wee bit to focus on "serious" stuff.
He (with some prompting from his mom) told me that while he laid down in the center of the labyrinth, it felt like God was talking to him.
Lots of thumbs up - After the labyrinth.
Another parent told me her fifth grader has beenasking (even before the event) how to determine God's plan for his life.
So I'm on a quest to find the right thing to help him discover how God can work in someone's life.

Showing off his butterfly. He said the labyrinth was awesome!
Today was filled with amazing conversations, lots of joyand an unexpected peace.

I couldn't focus to walk the labyrinthBut I did sit. I was quiet.And I simply enjoy watching my studentssomething new and amazing.It was a great way to spend Good Friday.
