Rose Garden Labyrinth
The Rose Garden Labyrinth was installed on our church campus in 2020. The labyrinth is open to our members and the public. The labyrinth represents a journey or path to our own center and back again out into the world. It is a personal tool for meditation and prayer. The roses have been planted in memoriam and/or honor of loved ones. The maintenance of the rose garden is performed by church members with experience in growing roses.
