Taizé
Prayer
Votive Candles |
This prayer form originated in Taizé, France where hundreds of thousands of
adults, young and old, gather annually to pray and seek to be instruments for
peace, reconciliation and hope in our world.
Meditative Taizé Prayer occurs in semi-darkness and candle light and is focused
and centered on the cross. There is generous silence and several beautiful
meditative songs with simple repetitive lyrics. There is Scripture and there are
Intercessions, all in a very welcoming, calm, peaceful and non-threatening
environment. You are invited to remove shoes if you wish and anyone,
particularly our children and youth, may recline around the sanctuary. Cushions
may be brought for this purpose.
