It was a blessing to have Taize prayer, at Fatima Retreat House (open-air) on 8th March,2008 (6:30pm to 8:00pm). The atmosphere was filled with the beautiful presence of our Lord along with the lovely songs of worship which were being chanted melodiously by a choir of 20 people led by Suraj and Rodney. There were nearly600 people present. The taizé worship went on for one and a half hour with brief periods of silence and readings from the word of God which helped the people to be in the presence of the Lord. At the end of the prayer all the people were given with lit candels symbolising that 'Jesus is the Light of the world'.
The decoration which was done skillfully added to the beauty of Taize worship, the decoration team was lead by Sherin and Francis.
The prayer started after the gathering was welcomed by Fr Ronnie Prabhu SJ followed by a brief introduction about the Taizé prayer by Rodney and Sharrel.
We are very grateful to the authorities of Fatima retreat house for their whole hearted support and cooperation.
with love and prayers.
