Event Details

Join us for a Taizé service with Dr. JoAnne Marie Terrell!

A Taizé worship service involves sung and chanted prayers, meditation, a period of silence, liturgical readings, and icons. There is no preaching. The style of prayer practiced at Taizé has attracted many worshipers from around the globe and from many different denominations. The prayers consist of “short chants, repeated again and again,” according to an introduction in a Taizé songbook. “The words are sung over many times.” It is a simple, meditative form of worship. Mantra songs, prayerful silence, and short readings guide the focus of the prayer in a candlelit environment.

This event will be hybrid. The in-person portion will be followed by community lunch.
