Product Description
Brother Roger (1915-2005) founded the ecumenical Taize Community, which continues to welcome tens of thousands of young adult pilgrims each year. The Community is familiar to the faithful of many denominations, who use Taize's meditative songs in their worship. Above all else Brother Roger strived not to be a spiritual master or teacher of methods of prayer and meditation but a listener. So this book presents not a programmme of prayer but an itinerary through the insights at the heart of Brother Roger's life of prayer and of action, telling the story of the Taize Community along the way. It allows readers to know and to pray with a figure who touched thousands of lives and helped, as Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams has said, 'Change the whole climate of a religious culture'.

15 Days of Prayer With Brother Roger of Taiz@eacute;
This is the story of Roger Schutz who founded the Taiz@eacute; Community in Burgundy during the Second World War. Known universally thereafter as Brother Roger, he built a community of Christians committed to ecumenism. A Protestant himself, he worked for the reconciliation of all Christians, Catholic, Protestant and Orthodox, and was welcomed by Popes and Archbishops of Canterbury. He travelled widely throughout the world, attending Vatican Councils and meeting leaders of other faiths. He remained the leader of the Community for sixty five years until murdered at the age of ninety by a mentally disturbed assailant. The book tells the story of this man of prayer and intersperses it with quotations from his many published works, prayers, commentaries on the Gospels and the chants for which the community is rightly famous. At the end of each chapter there are challenging questions for reflection. A truly inspiring book about a man truly inspired by God.
