This recording by the Taizé Community offers all the songs found on Laudate Omnes Gentes, but in instrumental versions only.

As with the first, Instrumental 2 comes with easy to sing refrains printed in six different languages. Solo and duet flutes play melodies and simple descants while the guitar accompanies throughout. Again, a helpful resource for small prayer groups or simply for listening.

Sabine Laplane

Brother Roger (1915-2005) founded the ecumenical Taizé Community, which continues to welcome tens of thousands of young adult pilgrims each year. Above all else he strove to be not a spiritual master or teacher of methods of prayer and meditation but a listener.

As you read 15 Days of Prayer with Brother Roger of Taizé you will discover the insights at the heart of Brother Roger's life that tell the story of the Taizé Community. Each narrative chapter in this book is followed by reflection questions that will help you to connect with Brother Roger's journey of faith and action, and will inspire you to unite his wisdom with the reality of your own life.

Sabine Laplane, a member of the Apostolic Community of Saint Francis Xavier, knew Brother Roger personally and remains a friend of Taizé. The Taizé brothers themselves encouraged her to write this book.

15 days of Prayer with Brother Roger of Taizé: Paperback 133 pages.

Taizé Community

This is the book of what has come to be known as Taizé prayer. Modelled after the structure of the Divine Office, this book offers seven prayer formats - a full weekly cycle - for Advent, Lent, and Easter; fourteen settings - a two-week cycle - for Ordinary Time; and three settings each for Christmas, Holy Week, and Pentecost. Each prayer includes a psalm text, Scripture reading, litany of praise or petition, and a Lord’s Prayer with closing prayer. Directions for using song and silence complete the format of each day.This is the ideal prayer leader’s manual for use with Songs for Prayer.A general introduction gives suggestions on preparing a prayer service, preparing the place, the use of songs and silence, and special celebrations of prayer around the cross and the festival of the Resurrection.

Brother Roger of Taizé

The 'source book' on which the common life in Taizé is based, this short volume is fundamental for understanding the vocation of Taizé. It is presented like a letter that Brother Roger addresses personally to each reader, telling how in spite of discouragement and even doubt we can constantly find refreshment in returning again and again to the sources of faith.

In the second part of the book, Brother Roger speaks particularly to the brothers of the community, recalling the essentials that make life together possible. In his own particular style, Taizé’s founder expresses himself in words that go straight to the heart. In page after page, he is careful not to write a single word that he has not first of all tried to live out himself.

Reflecting on the Bible in Silence and Song
The Taizé Community

Seeds of Trust introduces us to a loving and merciful God; it is an invitation to fall without resistance into God's loving embrace; it is a promise of support from someone who loves us.

The six chapters describe an inner journey toward a life of trust and confidence in God's love. Each of the 60 reflections begins with a biblical verse followed by questions for reflection, a song, and a prayer written by the founder, Brother Roger. As with all Taize prayer, a lengthy period of silent contemplation is prescribed. In silence God speaks to our hearts.

These reflections are suited to both personal and community prayer.

Brother Roger of Taizé

After more than sixty years of life in the Taizé Community, its founder, Brother Roger opened his heart to readers and shared the essentials of his thinking with God Is Love Alone. Apart from the main themes that lie at the heart of Taizé "trust, simplicity, and joy" the book also includes personal accounts of events and people that left their mark on the author and on the Taizé Community.

In simple but striking words and images, Brother Roger tells how the inner life of prayer and acts of human solidarity flow from one and the same spring: God, who never gives us anything less than all his love.

Last Writings of Brother Roger of Taizé

This title brings together two short books that the founder of the Taizé Community had completed just before his violent death in August 2005, with the unfinished letter to young people that he was preparing at the time.

In the first part, with his characteristic mix of delicacy and force, Brother Roger reflects on some of the events and people that influenced his life and calling, and on some of the steps taken at Taize over the years to create signs of reconciliation amidst the divisions of humanity. Never far from the surface is the suggestion that the reader too can perhaps discern in his or her own life a glimmer of God’s call, of a happiness offered.

This is followed by his own choice of prayers, composed for the daily services at Taize, each of them just a few words to express a search for God. Finally the unfinished letter, which insists repeatedly on God’s love for each person, contains a challenge of disconcerting simplicity, calling on the reader to live in a ‘kind-heartedness that is constantly renewed’.

Questions on Christian Faith and the Bible

It is our very nature to question. We are constantly searching for answers. We want to understand God and our faith in Christ Jesus. While it is impossible ever to know the mind of God, our questioning that propels us into a closer relationship with him.

Some of the questions addressed are: How can we know God? Is God just? Is poverty a gospel value? How can we make our lives a sacrifice? The biblically minded meditations following each question serve as a starting point. They may shed light on some issues, but will most assuredly evoke further speculation. exactly as the brothers of Taizé intended. Your questions will lead you on a journey of faith where you will enter more fully into the mystery of God. This is a perfect faith-sharing tool for small Christian communities, youth groups, and/or for personal study and reflection.
