At St. John's we have many different opportunities to use this beautiful and holy form of prayer. We especially use it every week at our 8PM Wednesday night Taize service, which usually includes Eucharist. Taizé, in the south of Burgundy, France, is the home of an international, ecumenical community, founded there in 1940 by Brother Roger. Today, the community is made up of over a hundred brothers, Catholics and from various Protestant backgrounds, from more than twenty-five nations. At the heart of daily life in Taizé are the times of prayer together. Since the late 1950s, many thousands of young adults from many countries have found their way to Taizé to take part in weekly meetings of prayer and reflection. Taizé is world renown for its prayer - it's distinctive form of chant-like sung prayer.
