Taizé services are named for a tiny village in eastern France that hosts an ecumenical monastic community dedicated to contemplative life and worship.Our Taizé services begin with silence followed by readings and the distinctive congregational music known simply as "Taizé". At times quiet and meditative, at other times joyous and exuberant, these services are transformational formative.
Taizé worship datesI weave a silence on my mind.
I weave a silence within my heart.
I close my ears to distractions.
I close my eyes to attentions.
I close my heart to temptations.
Calm me, o Lord,
as you stilled the storm.
Still me, o Lord,
keep me from harm.
Let all the tumult within me cease.
Enfold me Lord in your peace.
--Traditional Celtic prayer
