Located on the east side of the church campus, the Labyrinth Garden is a gift to the community of Appleton from the church, given in 2000 to commemorate the church’s 150th anniversary. We are grateful to Lawrence University for providing the site for this peaceful path to spiritual rejuvenation.

​A labyrinth is an archetype found in all faith traditions in various forms around the world. By walking a replica of the labyrinth that was laid in the floor of Chartres Cathedral around 1220 CE, we are rediscovering a long-forgotten, mystical tradition that is insisting to be reborn.

​The labyrinth is not a maze. It has only one path with no dead ends. The winding path encourages us to experience communion with God. You may walk it with an open mind and an open heart. 

There is no right way or wrong way to walk a labyrinth as long as the desire to walk with intention. Clear your mind and become aware of your breath. You may pass people or let others step around you, whichever is easiest at the turns. The path is a two-way street; those going in will meet those coming out. Do what feels natural. It is important to find and honor your own pace on the path, which will often change throughout the three stages of the walk. Follow the pace your body wants to go, not the pace the mind may think you should go. In order to honor your pace, give yourself permission to move around others during the labyrinth walk.

We ask that no one use skateboards, roller blades, bikes, or inline skates on the labyrinth.

Groups are asked to contact the church office (920) 733-7393 to schedule a group walk.
