Another option when you are on the front page is to click "Resources".  On the page that appears you can read about different practices under "Ways to Pray".

Another option further down on that page there is a section called "Prayers".  It provides a variety of ways to engage praying.

 
Taize'

 

 

 

 

 

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. 

Taize' services are held during Advent & Lent.
