October 2015 Events
Spirit
Space Labyrinth
Our labyrinth is complete. The
beautiful five circuit labyrinth is made of all natural products. Come
meander and meditate in the serene wooded environment of this sacred
land.
A labyrinth is a unicursal creation, its single pathway in becomes the
only way out and the journey is one of faith.
Walking a labyrinth is to dance your way into your own heart. Reaching
the center, one may choose to release things that are not serving for
highest good. Walking back out, one brings a renewed and rekindled
spirit back with them. For centuries labyrinths have provided the space
for meditation, prayer and self-reflection.
Please
call 616-836-1555 for more information.
Lightning
Stone Rattle Workshop
Singing Man is a Traditional Elder for his people and has been using
rawhide rattles for years in ceremony. In this three hour workshop, he
will show you how to make your own personalized ceremonial rattle and
explain why seven stones are used to enhance the sight and sound emitted
from the rattle. He is an enrolled member of the Southern Plains Indians
of Oklahoma. His people have been making these rattles for centuries.
They are called Lightning Stone Rattles for the light energy and sound
they emit while being used in ceremony. The light or sparks are said to
be the spirits of ancestors and friends who live in the spirit world now
who are trying to communicate through prayer. These rattles are mostly
used in the Ceremonial Lodges of his people. He will show you how to
cut, punch, sew, and decorate your rattle to fit your own personality.
Singing Man will also show you that it is important to pray over the
materials before you begin to use them. Cleansing and blessing is as
important as the objects themselves.
Singing Man will furnish materials for this workshop and will instruct
you how to assemble, decorate, paint, and bless your rattle. The
cost is $50 (pre-registration) or $60 per person on Oct 11. There is a
special pre-registration price of 2 persons for $90. Extra kits
will be available for sale at a nominal fee. Please contact Singing Man
@ ndn_n_ok@yahoo.com if you have any questions. Contact
thespiritspace@gmail.com to pre-register for this
workshop, directions and parking, and to ensure space availability.
Registration is limited to 15 people.
Things to bring: Scissors, pocket knife, and the willingness to
learn new and sacred things.
