Taizé Mass

This is a normal Sunday Mass. The mood is set by candlelight and quiet reflective Taizč chants.

In 1940 a young Swiss man named Roger settled in the tiny village of Taizé, France. There he offered shelter and hiding to political refugees. Particulary Jews. At the same time, he gathered around him a few men of different denominations. This was the beginning of a great ecumenical community. Here in the Parish of St Jude the Apostle the Taizé mass is celebrated on the Last Sunday of the month from September to April, and each Sunday in Advent & Lent. The Mass is a normal Sunday Mass. The mood is set by candlelight & quite reflective music called Taizé chants which help to maintain a peaceful, prayerful atmosphere.

Brother Roger went on to form a monastic community in Taizé to live out a "parable of communion and love"
