Emmanuel Episcopal Parish invites all to an evening service of prayer, renewal and reflection in the style of Taize, a religious community in France where the artist Matisse spent his last days.
The contemplative service incorporates simple, repetitive song and chant, with scripture and silence set in a space of quiet and soft light. The ecumenical service, rooted in unifying prayer, is meant to foster reconciliation and peace.
The service will be Sunday, Dec. 12th, 5:00 pm in the Emmanuel Parish hall. For more information on the Taize community in France, go to: www.taize.fr/en
