Sunday August 4th, 10:30 – 11:30 (come a little early if you want to help with creating an altar) at the Community Labyrinth located at the Denman Island United Church and Gathering Place 4575 Denman Rd (top of Big Hill).
Lammas (Loaf Mass), Lughnasadh, is the ancient Celtic celebration of the first harvest. Falling at the beginning of August, midway between Summer Solstice and Fall Equinox, Lammas honours the first harvests of grain and the first loaves of bread made from it. As we celebrate this Old Way at our Community Labyrinth we will also be honouring the farmers, the food growers and food makers, the plants, the grains and the Elements which they combine and upon which their lives and ours depend. All life is Sacred.
You may wish to bring something from your own garden, a little grain or seed or fruit, the name of a food producer whom you wish to honor, something for the collective altar representing the Elements of Life: Earth, Air, Fire, Water and Spirit. You’ll know, and you will be welcome.
All are welcome. All spiritual paths, all genders.
