Advent Worship in the Style of Taizé

December 11, 201616 Altar Advent

Third Sunday of Advent

Several times each year, Seekers Church takes time out from its regular preaching schedule for a service of chant, prayer and reflection modeled on the worship of the Taizé Community in France. As we wait in Advent, this Sunday seemed a particuarly appropriate time. Repeating the chants together until they die away into the silence provides rest for our world-weary spirits as well as an opportunity for individual reflection on our faith journeys. As we joined in spirit with the monks at Taizé, we were nourished by their faithfulness as well as by their music.
