Full Moon Labyrinth Walk

Monday, September 19 @ 7-9pm
Noticing and honoring the phases of the moon is an ancient indigenous practice, which we will recreate as we ceremoniously walk the winding paths of the Wellness Center's labyrinth. Labyrinths go back thousands of years, appearing in European Cathedrals and carved in stone by civilizations all over the world. Led by Connie Fenty, local labyrinth facilitator and creator, we will marvel at the full moon as a metaphor for abundance, and discuss the history and mystery of labyrinth walking. Limited to 20 people........$25


New Moon Labyrinth Walk

Monday, October 3 @ 7:00

Join Connie Fenty, local labyrinth facilitator and creator, for a meditative moonlight walk on the Wellness Center's labyrinth.  The new moon is associated hope and renewal.  It is a good time to make changes.  Before the walk, we will determine what changes we wish to make and what we need to let go of to make room for change.
The labyrinth walk will assist us in the process........$25

 

The Harvest of Compassion Concert and Labyrinth Walk

Snipes Farm in Morrisville, PA.

Sunday, October 30th 6pm to 8:30 pm

       Join us for an evening of sacred music under the autumn sky at the beautiful Tree Stage area at Snipes Farm. Featuring world renowned cellist and champion of peace Michael Fitzpatrick and acclaimed Celtic harpist Julia Haines.   An additional feature of the concert will be the spectacular illuminated classical labyrinth.  Those present will be invited to reflectively walk its winding pathways while accompanied by the musicians. The ancient pattern used for ceremony and spiritual awakening has undergone a recent revival all over the world.  The labyrinth was created by locals, Connie Fenty and Judith Solt.  

       Food and wine will be available catered by McCaffrey’s Markets Catering and Crossing Vineyards.  Bring a blanket or lawn chairs (some seating available). This promises to be a powerful and delightful event. 

       The concert has been fully funded by a grant from Gabrielle Arts Alliance.  A donation of $10 per ticket will benefit the YMCA Kids to Camp Fund which helps homeless children access YMCA programs. 

In case of inclement weather the concert will be held under a giant tent located on the farm.  Please join us for this wonderful event and make a donation to the healing of our community and promoting peace within each of us.  For more information and tickets please contact the Lower Bucks YMCA at 215-949-3400
