Many organizations use our facilities for a variety of activities. We have a Boy Scout troop, PEO Women's Philanthropic group, Canterbury Harp Ensemble practices, hockey referees in training, and piano recitals. 

If you wish to use our facilities, consult the calendar (under News heading)for an open day and time and then fill out the Facilities Use Request form. At this time you need to print the form, fill it out and return it to the office at St. Chad’s. We’re glad to share our space with you!

Labyrinth

You are invited to visit St. Chad's labyrinth located at the north end of the church parking lot and make it part of your devotional practice. It offers wonderful views of sunrise over the Sandias and the sun setting in the west while serving as a device for prayer and contemplation. 

A labyrinth is an ancient symbol of wholeness. Its imagery of a circle and spiral suggests a meandering but purposeful journey, a path to our own center and back again into the world. 

Labyrinths can be found in churches, parks, schools, prisons, medical centers, and peoples' back yards. They are open to all people as cross-cultural, non-denominational tools of well-being. 

For Christians, the labyrinth can be a path of prayer, a walking meditation, a crucible for change, a watering hole for the spirit, or a mirror of the soul as we center on Christ and open ourselves to God's call to us. 

A booklet to assist with your walk of the labyrinth is located in the wooden box on the path to the labyrinth.

Stations of the Cross

You also are invited to visit St. Chad's Stations of the Cross located in the south yard of the church. Although Stations of the Cross is often associated with a Good Friday devotion, it is available year round as a devotional practice. 

A booklet to assist with your walk of the Stations is located in a plastic box on the southwest corner of the church.
