Join Sue Sutherland-Hanson, M.Div and comparative religionist and spirituality writer Kimberly Beyer-Nelson as we tour four of Bainbridge Island’s magical labyrinths.

Our journey will begin at Grace Episcopal Church, then on to Rolling Bay Presbyterian, Sakai Intermediate School, and end finally at Bethany Lutheran.

Learn the history of the labyrinth in each location, what triggered their development within their respective communities, and how they were planned and implemented. At each site, we’ll explore a different way to walk a labyrinth, from holy day techniques to deep psychological inquiry to styles of downright playful prayer time. Dialogue about our experiences throughout the day will enrich the tour.

Participants should plan to bring a sack lunch and writing materials. Dress for walking and comfort. We’ll carpool from Grace to help save gas and encourage discussion and fellowship.

Parenting is the most challenging and important job any of us will ever have.  Understanding how children think, perceive the world, and learn at different stages is very helpful to having a peaceful and effective relationship with your child.

This workshop will help you understand what “mindful” parenting is — parenting which includes being aware and sensitive to your child’s needs and desires and balancing them with your needs and desires — through better understanding how children relate to the world at the different stages of development.

This workshop will cover ages 3-6, 7-10, 11-13 and the teen years.

There will be lecture, discussion and some writing.
Childcare will be available.
