The Labyrinth at The Anchor House is located on the property of Chapelwood United Methodist Church in the backyard of The Anchor House, which is our retreat house. Park at Parking Lot C, facing the fence. Entrance to the labyrinth is through the large double gate. The Prayer Labyrinth at The Anchor House is a custom labyrinth designed by Reginald Charles Adams. It is a 7-circuit variation of the medieval pattern, with a 10-foot-wide diameter center, all encircled within a Celtic Cross. The 3-foot-wide pathways provides ample space for group walks, as well as accommodate people with wheelchairs, scooters, and walkers. The 4 points of the cross align with the 4 cardinal points, with the sole entrance to the labyrinth in the East. There are 20 turns as one walks inward to the center, as well as the same 20 turns as one retraces their steps outward. These turns can represent the twists and turns of life, as well as how we repeatedly need to practice “turning to God.”
