Breathing together – a Pentecost labyrinth walk

     Meet at the Parking Lot on the south west side of the pedestrian bridge that crosses the Bow River (on Bridge Road).  We will walk together to the Labyrinth. 

 When We Breathe Together
A Blessing for Pentecost Day

This is the blessing
that comes
when we leave behind
our aloneness
when we gather
together
when we turn
toward one another.

This is the blessing
that blazes among us
when we speak
the words
strange to our ears

when we finally listen
into the chaos

when we breathe together
at last.

One Searing Word

May there come
one searing word:
enough to bare you
to the bone,
enough to set
your heart ablaze,
enough to make you
whole again.
