Taizé at All Saints
Taizé at All Saints
Taizé is the name of a small village in the eastern part of France.
Since 1940, it has been the home of a community of Christians from many denominations whose worship is at the center of their life. Over the years, this ecumenical community at Taizé has become a place to which visitors of all ages and backgrounds come on pilgrimage to participate in gatherings of worship and prayer. For more information, you may visit their website: www.taize.fr/
Since 2014, All Saints has been offering Taizé Vespers (an evening worship service) based on the music and worship developed and used at the Taizé community. It is a meditative, music-filled liturgy with songs from Taizé, scripture or other readings, and time for silence and prayer.
Taize Vespers is best suited to children over the age of 10. Please help us maintain the quiet nature of this service
“Taizé Vespers” takes place on the first Sunday of the month. It will include our Taizé ensemble of guitar, piano, strings, woodwinds, choir and cantors.
“Simply Taizé” takes place on the 3rd Sunday of the month. The accompaniment will be simply guitar or piano, and voices. Those who would like to sit at the front and sing in the choir are welcome to join us at 6:50 pm, ten minutes before the service begins.
