taise
notes

The Taizé   (tay-ZAY´ ) prayer form is both personal and ecumenical, a format that crosses cultural and denominational lines. 

The prayer form dates from 1940 when Roger Louis Schutz-Marsauche, a 25 year-old Lutheran later known as Brother Roger, came to the small village of Taizé in the Burgundy region of France, dreaming of starting an ecumenical community for contemplation and reconciliation of Christians of all faiths.

In the Taizé service, there is some scripture reading, much simple singing of chants, and time for meditation.  Candles are used to help us focus our thoughts.
 

Faith Lutheran periodically conductrs Taise` services.

A Taize' Service is also held in Lent.

Guards for Congregation Beth Israel
 
Jewish synagogues in the past have had trouble with radicals disturbing their High Holy Day services.
Several members of Faith Lutheran Church over the past several years have stood outside of Congregation Beth Israel in September during their High Holy Day services to discourage any possible disturbances.

All services will be held at the Congregation building at 14th and Hemlock.

If you are interested in helping with Faith Lutheran in this effort,
please contact Philip Kuykendall.
