Labyrinth Workshop
On Saturday, March 29, Adult Education offered our first ever workshop in response to parishioners’ request to learn more about our lovely labyrinth. Dianna Blosser, an expert on the labyrinth, led our workshop. Bill Harkins borrowed the canvas labyrinth from the Cathedral so that we were able to utilize both our indoor and outdoor spaces.
Participants found Ms. Blosser to be an excellent and engaging teacher. She discussed the history of the labyrinth and instructed participants in its use. She provided each participant with materials to take home.
The workshop took place between 9 am – 2 pm inclusive of coffee and lunch. The schedule allowed multiple opportunities to walk the labyrinth. Shelley Garstin, the harpist, provided music for the workshop.
Thanks to everyone who participated in this workshop.
Lenten Study and Potluck Meal
On Wednesdays during Lent, Holy Family parishioners and guests gather on Wednesday evenings for learning and fellowship. In 2025 Bill Harkins and Allan DeNiro co-led discussions of Richard Rohr’s book, Falling Upward, and Allan’s lovely book on his journey with St. Peter. Thirty-five to forty souls met each week. Bill hoped that attendees would “learn something new, think theologically about their lives and the world around us, and meet new friends.” Allan reports “this was an engaged and ever-more willful group in a very prayerful mode of learning and sharing.” Each evening ended with Compline. Thanks to Allan and Bill, all our attendees and to Hospitality for their support.
