Friday, on the way home from the Pancake House in Anaheim, I noticed a large banner on the First Presbyterian church - they are now having Taizé services on some Sunday evenings, including tonight, at 7 pm. I attended a Taizé service in Pasadena many years ago and the meditative ambience and format of the service fascinated me.
(From Wikipedia: "The Taizé Community was founded by Roger Louis Schütz-Marsauche (later known simply as Frère Roger or Brother Roger), born on May 12, 1915 in the village of Provence, Switzerland". )
Since I'm just back from Switzerland, I knew that this service was for me. I went there this evening and thought, "They really are quiet during these prayer services" because I couldn't find anyone. Then I looked more closely at the banner. It turns out that the Taize services are on Wednesday evening (the same night we have our Men's Group).

I've got to say this is my all-time favorite post yet. Isn't it cool how the human brain works? You and I both assumed the service was on Sunday evenings.
ReplyDeleteI always enjoying saying, "Great minds think alike." Even if I don't always believe that.
