With deep appreciation to Bill and Myra MacLean, founders of the International Childrens' Memorial Place
On June 13th. 2010 a dedication ceremony to officially open the "Labyrinth of Life and Love" took place at The International Children's Memorial Place. A labyrinth is an ancient spiritual tool, found in various forms in all religious traditions around the world and throughout history
.
The pattern of our ICMP “turf” Labyrinth was constructed from a design by Lea Goode-Harris, PhD. It is called the Santa Rosa Labyrinth, and is a seven circuit variation of the medieval labyrinth in the floor of Chartres Cathedral in France (created in about 1200AD)Presently, on PEI, this is the only Labyrinth open to the public. Why walk the labyrinth? A labyrinth can be used for many purposes including prayer and meditation, working through issues, quieting the mind and stress reduction, self-knowledge and insights, celebration of people or events and team building,
Walking the path can provide insights, courage, and understanding in facing life’s challenge. What happens in the labyrinth may be symbolic of what is happening in your real world.
