Holy Week Blessings to All!

Online in Holy Week with the Taizé Community: You can listen every day at 2:30 EST to a live audio broadcast of the evening prayer from the Church of Reconciliation in Taizé. All this can be accessed on their main page and clicking either on the “Prayer live from Taizé” green button each day at 2:30 EST or to one of the options just below it to hear recordings.

You might enjoy this Holy Thursday Bible reflection by Br. Jean-Marie, who is one of the American brothers.

On Sunday there will be a recording of the Taizé Easter Eucharist on the Taizé YouTube page here .

Local Atlanta update: Since the Third Monday falls on Easter Monday this year, there will not be a prayer at the Cathedral of St. Philip. Stay tuned for prayers in May.

A prayer from Br. Alois:

God of love, you have placed a longing in us, and we offer it to you as our prayer. Send your Holy Spirit so that we may live in a way that is no longer centred on ourselves. May your Spirit make our hearts attentive to those who are hoping for consolation.

May you have a Blessed Triduum!
