Suntree church opens its prayer labyrinth to community


From Florida-

Kendra Lacy finds inner piece walking the prayer labyrinth at Hope Episcopal Church in Suntree.

"I fell in love with the area immediately," she said.

The labyrinth, created a few weeks ago with a beautification grant from Keep Brevard Beautiful, is part of the church's contemplative outdoor spaces, which includes the Quiet Garden with a hand-built bridge that overlooks a creek bed in the woods behind the church.

The garden is intended as a "plein air" chapel where individuals can find serenity and peace amid nature.

"The labyrinth is just one small part of what we want to offer the community to reflect and pray," Pastor Deborah Vann said.
