Taize Community Draws Youthful Pilgrims in Burgundy Hills
In Taize France a mixed Protestant Catholic community welcomes up to 2000 young visitors weekly for prayer, discussion, and silence. Brother Roger founded the Taize Community during World War II era. The Taize Church and its monks pursue Christian reconciliation without formal church ties, relying on multilingual services and shared living. The upcoming John Paul II visit is noted as a significant event for the ecumenical movement.
