St Cuthbert Labyrinth
Five years ago, a group from St Cuthbert's set out to walk the 100km route called, 'the St
Cuthbert's Way' to help raise money to rebuild the church. The walk goes from Melrose in
Scotland, to Lindisfarne in the North East, going through various places that were
significant in St Cuthbert's life. The St Cuthbert's Way labyrinth has been designed to help
people pray, by using reminders of the St Cuthbert's Way walk and stories from the life of
St Cuthbert. On Sunday, 26th September from 4 to 8pm, take a journey around St
Cuthbert's; read about the life and work of St Cuthbert and find out how Cuthbert's story
can help you pray. Come and be quiet, come and light a candle, come and get creative.
