Walk for Peace

World Labyrinth Day will be held on Saturday,  May 3rd, 12:30 – 2:00 PM on the Labyrinth at St. Mark's, 1101 N. Collier Boulevard (off Bluebird Avenue near the playground).

This event is FREE and open to the public. 

Bring a friend and enjoy this free event to "Walk as one at 1PM for Peace." The global walk for peace starts on Islands off the coast of Australia, where people start walking on a labyrinth at 1:00 PM in their time zone. The global event then circles the globe, where people walk for peace at 1:00 PM in their time zone. Last year, the St. Mark's Labyrinth "Walk for Peace' video was included in the global video of events held around the world.

Arrive early at 12:30 PM and enjoy the music of renowned Marco Island musician Shane Totten and his friends as you walk for peace! Bring your lunch and a chair, and picnic with everyone gathered! 

The St. Mark's Labyrinth walk will begin with a brief description of what a labyrinth is and how easy it is to walk one way in and one way out. A labyrinth is not a maze! Just follow the person in front of you as you walk for world peace or for whatever thoughts are on your mind. The reasons you are walking are yours and yours alone. Consider yourself a modern pilgrim on a journey.

The St. Mark's Labyrinth is open to the public. For more information, call Ellen van Nagell at 502-445-0249. Ellen is a trained labyrinth facilitator and is available (free) to help you or your group learn more about labyrinths.
