Taize Prayer


Quarterly Taize Evening Prayer 
Fridays, 7:30 p.m.

Starting in 2010, Christians from any tradition have gathered at St. Richard for candlelit evening prayer. Using the meditative music composed for the monastic community of Taize, in France, this moving form of prayer is almost entirely sung.  Music is led by a multi-voice choir, soloists, and an instrumental ensemble. The centerpiece of the evening is several minutes of holy silence. These ecumenical evening prayer services will be held seasonally on the following Fridays: 
• Dec. 6, 2024 (Advent Season)    • June 6, 2025 (Easter Season)
• April 4, 2025 (Lent Season)        • Sept. 5, 2025 (Ordinary Time)

Desde 2010, cristianos de cualquier tradición se han reunido en St. Richard para orar a la luz de las velas. Utilizando la música meditativa compuesta para la comunidad monástica de Taizé, en Francia, esta conmovedora forma de oración nos invita tanto al canto sagrado como al silencio. Estos servicios ecuménicos de oración vespertina se llevarán a cabo según la temporada los siguientes viernes:
• Dec. 6, 2024 (Temporada de Adviento)    
• April 4, 2025 (Temporada de Cuaresma)    
• June 6, 2025 (Temporada de Pascua)
• Sept. 5, 2025 (Tiempo Ordinario)
