If you pray with us via livestream, we encourage you to create your own sacred space as you seek to observe this hour of prayer. Bring out your own candles for the "Intercessions" portion of the service and cross to venerate during the "Prayer Before the Cross." The song lyrics will appear on the livestream, so feel free to sing and pray them along with us. In case of technical difficulties with the lyrics, you may find a sheet with the song lyrics we will be praying together here: https://www.somosdelavid.org/post/taiz%C3%A9-song-sheet-may-21-2021
We will update this and other events we have planned with regard to COVID-19 and directives per the Norbertine Community of Santa Maria de la Vid Abbey.
Leave the noise of modern life behind for an evening of prayer! Build your relationship with Jesus Christ through song, Scripture, silence and contemplation with our virtual community! This is an ecumenical and interdenominational form of prayer. Taizé is a spirituality that is easy to experience and hard to describe. Invite your friends and family to join in. Taizé is served by the Norbertine Community’s Office of Christian Discipleship & Religious Vocation at Santa Maria de la Vid Abbey.
