What a joy to be with students at Hendrix Chapel to explore the questions, "Who am I? Who are we?" The students are loving and caring, intelligent and curious as the miniatures in their community tray demonstrate.
God's Spirit touches our spirits and confirms who we really are...Father and children. Love and beloved.
-Romans 8:16

All are invited to walk, whether the labyrinth is brand new to you or a longtime friend.

All are invited to walk, whether the labyrinth is brand new to you or a longtime friend.

Jodie Goens, Spiritual Director in Residence at NLRFUMC is offering a wonderful, prayerful opportunity for those who wish to participate.

๐Ÿ‘ฃYou may be wondering, what is a labyrinth walk? The labyrinth is an ancient spiritual tool. It is not a maze, but a winding path from the edge to the center and back out again. It is a three-fold walk where you will:
1. Release your prayers
2. Receive from God.
3.Return to the World

The labyrinth helps to quiet the mind, be present to the body, and listen for the still,
small voice within. When we walk in community, we see we are all on a journey together, yet we are each on our own walk.

Event details:
Those who wish to attend will gather at 9 a.m.
A prayer and guidance for walking will be offered.
We will walk together.
Then you are welcome to go about your day or to linger on the grounds till noon.
This is a peaceful place that my husband and I are eager to share.
You may walk the labyrinth again, sit and pray, enjoy nature,
Journal, play or do your own art or handiwork.
Feel free to invite friends and family.

*Comfortable, closed toe shoes are suggested.
**Water, bug spray and sun screen will be provided.
***Carpooling is encouraged when possible.

You must RSVP to attend. RSVP by emailing: jodiegoens@att.net

Do you have good memories of playing in the sand as a child? Do you like the feel of the sand when you go to the beach?
What other ways to you like to play?

I am thankful for First United Methodist Church of North Little Rock and being asked, "Are you building walls or bridges?"
I'm for bridges and for loving my neighbors! Thank you, Rev. Maxine Allen for being a trail blazer and for sharing your faith story!

I am working on a backyard classical labyrinth. If you have rocks that you would like included, I am accepting donations in the central Arkansas area. Size is as much as can be held in one strong hand or smaller. Thank you. Iโ€™m curious and grateful to hear from you.

What if you had a place to go one hour every month where you could close the door to the noise of the world, quiet your thoughts, slow your pace, breathe deeply and listen for the still small voice of God, all the while having a caring, listening companion by your side? Might you discover more of the life God created for you? Might you be more intentional on your spiritual path? This is what Spiritual Direction offers. I'm available to answer questions or schedule a session if this speaks to your inner longing.
