Taizé Community

Taizé is an ecumenical monastic community founded by Brother Roger in a small Burgundy village, where brothers from different Christian confessions live together. Every week it welcomes thousands of young people, as well as adults and families, to share common prayer three times a day, with its simple, repetitive chants, reflection on biblical texts in small groups and community life. Far from proselytism, its approach centres on the Gospel and on what the community calls a pilgrimage of trust on earth, which also continues in European youth meetings held in different cities.
