We have two outdoor chapels to help assist in your spiritual development and needs. The Lakeside Chapel located near the waterfront is a great open space to worship. It is accessible by car and can have electricity available for live streaming or amplification. This is the perfect spot for a larger gathering or an outdoor worship service combined with a church picnic.(See picture, below left)
The Old Chapel is located in a quieter location, off the trail to the labyrinth, near Cedar Meadow Lodge. Surrounded by rocks and daffodils in the spring, this quaint chapel is a favorite for small weddings and worship.
The outdoor labyrinth is located in an old-growth forested area of Johnsonburg.
A labyrinth is a meditative practice, spiritual meditation. A maze with one way in and out. Walking the labyrinth provides a peaceful and mindful setting to hear God’s voice and to reflect. It is a great opportunity to unwind from the many stresses and pressures of life. The Labyrinth was built in 2000 as a leadership project using rocks from the grounds.
Johnsonburg also has an indoor tarp labyrinth for harsh weather and easy accessibility. Tealight candles can be used to illuminate this experience which works well in the gymnasium or the Dining Hall (due to the large size). This labyrinth is walked without shoes on.
