Connections

Labyrinth was created by members of Grace, Epicentre and Live On Planet Earth alternative worship groups.

Grace

Fresh vital worship since 1993. Based at St. Mary's Anglican church, Ealing, west London.

Epicentre

For nine years the Epicentre Network, based in Clapham, London, were one of Britain's most significant and creative alternative worship groups. As well as regular worship services and homegroups, they ran a vibrant internet discussion board, held monthly film nights, and published a small magazine. Since many members of Epicentre were trained fine artists they held art shows in local cafes and bars. In 1998 they hosted an Arts Café at Greenbelt Festival, and in 2000 they helped create the St. Paul's Cathedral Labyrinth. When Epicentre closed in October 2002 many former members moved on to form a new group called Moot.

Live On Planet Earth

'Live On Planet Earth' began in Kent. After the closure of their service they collaborated with Grace and Epicentre to produce the St Paul's Cathedral Labyrinth and other acts of worship, before reforming in northwest London as L8r.
