Time for Taize…

On Wednesday, February 24, 2016, violinist Jennifer Silk will be joined by colleague cellist Wendy Cotton for this ecumenical meditative prayer service that incorporates song and chant, Scripture readings and silence.  The service begins at 6:30 p.m., with welcoming music shortly before it.

All Are Welcomed

All Are Welcomed

This event is being sponsored and hosted by the Clare Oaks Retirement community, in the Sacred Heart Chapel located behind 825 Carillon Drive in Bartlett, Illinois.

As the candles are lit and through singing simple chants, the mind is quieted and the heart is opened. The belief is that healing is a grace that connects us to life in God. Taize services foster reconciliation and peace among all people and this is done by welcoming all faiths so everyone will feel at home.
