TAIZÉ

Pentecost 2020 | An online initiative

 
With the Covid-19 epidemic and health measures in many countries, it will be difficult to hold summer meetings in Taizé as in previous years. We hope to welcome young people and adults again as soon as possible. In the meantime, we would like to propose a special weekend for Pentecost with several online ideas.

Small sharing groups for 18-35 year olds

On this coming Pentecost weekend, we will be offering young adults aged 18 to 35 the opportunity to take part in small sharing groups from home. Adults over 35 years old can of course form groups as well on their own, as the Bible reflection and questions will be available to all. For legal reasons we are unable to integrate minors, but group leaders who wish can consider appropriate options locally for their group members.

  • Before registering, young people aged 18 to 35 who wish to participate must read the Users’ Charter in English or in French.
  • To register, please use the form online here.
  • To give us feedback, make a suggestion, or report inappropriate behavior, please write an email to meet taize.fr.
