Taize Worship Service

Taizé worship is an ecumenical type of worship, meaning it reaches people worldwide. It originated in the small village of Taizé, France, by a monk named Roger Louis Schutz-Marsauche. Since its founding, the practice has spread worldwide since it is non-denominational and seeks to unite all forms of Christianity. Its peaceful, contemplative nature has drawn millions from all over the world to practice this kind of worship. The worship is composed of three parts - repetition, silence, and simple music. Joined together, these give people the opportunity to focus on their thoughts and prayer for a meaningful worship experience.
