Welcome to Taizé Style Evening Prayer at St. Basil's

What is Taizé-Style
Prayer?


Taizé-style prayer is a meditative form of prayer that includes simple, chant-like songs, periods of silence, and scripture readings. It is rooted in the ecumenical monastic community of Taizé in France and offers a peaceful space to slow down, breathe, and rest in God’s presence.
