Stillness and Song

Taize Poster 2027

A service in the quiet, reflective style of the Taizé Community in France. This Community welcomes thousands of visitors every year from all over the world and has developed a beautiful meditative style of worship service, based around reflective short prayer songs, silence and simplicity.

It will appeal to you especially if you appreciate stillness in worship and space for something peaceful.

A small group of local musicians provide the music. The songs are sung repeatedly and prayerfully, so that they do indeed become sung prayers for us.  There is also a time for lighting candles, short readings and short spoken prayers and some silence.

During our building work, the service will be held at the Fell Church in Grange
