The newest addition to Sheridan’s campus is the Memorial Labyrinth was added in early winter.
Located west of the 70th street parking lot entrance, this labyrinth has been
made possible by memorial funds and special gifts. Landscaping around the labyrinth will be
completed later this spring. A labyrinth is a
pathway that assists people in centering themselves, finding balance and
wholeness and connecting to the Divine.
This ancient prayer tool is found in a variety of cultures as early as
2500 BC. The walking path of a labyrinth
moves forward by turning equally right and left creating multiple circuits that
always lead to the center. In this
simple pattern, the labyrinth captures many aspects of life-journey, rhythm,
search, discovery, change, trust and our movement inward to sacred space. 
This mini-pilgrimage commemorates and
celebrates the mysteries of Christ’s life.
It symbolizes the true path to eternal life, a contemplative way of
following Jesus who journeyed as we do through life and death to resurrection. Brochures with more information on walking a
labyrinth are available on the Welcome Center.
