Taizé prayer in Bucharest: where?

Taizé prayer in Bucharest: where? - Man in Gray Shirt Holding Black Samsung Android Smartphone

Where I live, use to go to the Taizé prayer in the nearby parish. I know this is international and that many people, after coming back to Taizé, start to pray the same way in small groups within the local church.

Now I'm going to Bucharest for 5 days and I would like to join a Taizé prayer in the local community (if any).

Do you know if there are any regular Taizé prayers in Bucharest and if it would be possible to get in contact with them in advance to ask for information about how to join the prayer?

I had a look at the taize.fr website but I found no useful information.



Best Answer

Your best bet actually comes from the main taize.fr site, where they mention St Sylvester's church in Bucharest, when talking about Brother Alois' visit to Romania in 2008:

Fr. Bordasiu, current parish priest of St. Silvester, who began sending groups to Taizé from Bucharest in 1990, remembered the visits of Brother Grégoire already in the 1970s.

So certainly, if anyone can help you with taize prayer or finding a community of those who associate with the order, St Sylvester seems like the place to start.
