Taizé is a beautiful form of Christian prayer that originated in the ecumenical Taizé Community in
France. While our service will not follow the structure of Taizé prayer exactly, it will draw from its spirit—offering a time of quiet reflection, simple chanting, Scripture readings, shared prayers, and silence.
With the theme of the Season of Creation, we will reflect on the abundance and beauty of God’s
creation, while also bringing before God the challenges of our time around environmental care.
