Come to Taizé!

Taizé at St. Mary's gives us something increasingly rare: time to be quiet together.

We gather as a community in candlelight, surrounded by familiar faces and people we may only be beginning to know. Through silence, prayer, Scripture, and simple songs repeated together, the usual distinctions between us begin to fade. We are simply people sharing the presence of God.

Nothing is demanded. No one needs to have the right words, understand everything, or even know exactly what they believe. We come as we are, and we make room for one another.

In that shared quiet, burdens can loosen. Grief has room to breathe. Gratitude can surface. And someone carrying a difficult week discovers that they do not have to carry it alone.

Taizé reminds us what St. Mary's can be at its best: a community where we belong, where we are held in prayer, and where God meets us together.
See you Thursday evening!

By the way, in October we are moving to the second Thursday of the month. That is October 8th. It will continue to be the second Thursday of the month.
