First Universalist Society in Franklin (FUSF) will ring in the new year on December 31 with its 13th Annual Labyrinth Walk, a sacred walking meditation.

A related art activity of making or coloring mandalas will also be offered. These activities will run from 5-7 p.m. and light refreshments will be available.

A brief ceremony at 5 p.m. will kick off the festivities.

The FUSF sanctuary will be a place of candlelight and music to set the contemplative mood for sacred labyrinth-walking. You will be asked to remove your shoes before walking, so plan to wear socks.

You are invited to celebrate the blessings of the new year or rid yourself of what you wish to leave behind in 2019. You might also wish to state your goals for 2020. Paper will be available and a vessel in the center of the labyrinth will receive your intentions, which will be sacredly burned after the labyrinth walk.

If you are not familiar with walking a labyrinth, it’s as easy as putting one foot in front of the other as you follow the path into the center of the labyrinth. You may want to spend a few moments soaking up the energy in the room. Then, you return on the same path to the exit.

The labyrinth will be open until 7p.m. However, you are asked to come no later than 6:30 p.m. to walk, since most walks take about 30 minutes. Give yourself this gift to start your new year!

FUSF is a liberal faith community welcome to all and is located at 262 Chestnut Street in Franklin, MA. Please contact: Judy Butler at [email protected] or 508-533-7173 with any questions about the event or email [email protected] for general questions about FUSF.
