Taizé prayer refers to chants that praise God or plea for God’s help. During Taizé prayer evenings, the gathered crowd repeatedly sings each chant with the choir for several minutes – like a mantra. The repetition helps connect those gathered with God, while disconnecting them from life’s stress. Taizé prayer originated with an ecumenical community of Christians in Taizé, France, who gather daily to chant and meditate together. learn more
