On Memorial Day,  St. Alban’s Episcopal Church in Edmonds suggests you consider spending time reflecting about your loved ones while walking a labyrinth. The grass labyrinth at St. Alban’s, located at 21405 82nd Place W., is around the back of the church and is always open.

A labyrinth walking is a form of meditation that has been practiced by nearly every religious tradition since ancient times. Church member Maryellen Young describes it as “a pattern with a purpose. Walking a labyrinth is a gift we give to ourselves because it offers us a chance to take time out from our busy lives, to leave schedules and stress behind. The labyrinth walk is popular with a growing number of people because of its simplicity and the ability to approach its paths on your own terms.  What a wonderful way to remember the blessings of past times spent with loved ones who are no longer with us.”

A brochure is available at the church that provides more information about walking a labyrinth. Visitors are asked to sign the guest book so the church knows the labyrinth is being used and appreciated.
