On June 23, 2013, a misty Sunday afternoon, a small group of people braved the elements to celebrate together. As Taize melodies were chanted in beautiful harmony, some slowly meandered through the field of white daises which marked the labyrinth.
The day began with heavy rain and many, believing the event would be cancelled did not venture forth. However, much to the appreciation of those attending, Susan Murray, the organizer, was committed to continue with the plan as it had previously been postponed. As you may notice in the photo, Leah our musician, was undaunted by the weather. Both Leah and her piano were well protected by the little pup tent supplied by Susan and Sandy Murray. Once again she performed her magic both with keyboard and voice and was accompanied at times by Mary’s drumming. There were also a variety of percussion instruments available which Susan encouraged participants to join in and play.
Many thanks to the amazing Commons volunteers who mowed a path through the tall wet grasses down to the Labyrinth so that it was even wheelchair accessible!
A magical afternoon for those attending.
