WEBINAR: The Jail Labyrinth Project with Sister Lorrie Villemaire and Cathy Rigali hosted by Lauren Artress

Labyrinth Ministry Creates First In-Ground Labyrinth in US Jail

Discover how this phenomenal event happened! Inmates involved in a labyrinth program challenged two certified Veriditas facilitators to do the impossible. After five years of a continuous 12-week program, inmates learned the transformative power of the labyrinth. They asked that one be build on the jail grounds. With the blessing of the sheriff and an anonymous financial donor, the impossible happened. After three months of hard labor, they created a beautiful 80' labyrinth in the jail yard next to the razor fences. Their work received a standing ovation from the boarder community who attended the labyrinth dedication ceremony.

Learn more specifics this project that fostered such enthusiasm: how to set up a program, develop a meaningful curriculum and educate staff to support its evolution. Where better to have a labyrinth than a correctional facility? You won't want to miss this exciting webinar.
