DESCRIPTION:As divisions in churches and societies seem to pile up on top o
 f wars\, environmental crises and economic concerns\, we are drawn to pray
  together specifically for peace - in our hearts\, our homes\, our churche
 s\, our communities\, our world. May our prayers move us to strive for God
 's justice and peace wherever we are.\nYou are invited to join a short and
  simple monthly time of prayers for peace with songs from Taizé\, at the 
 end of the workday on first Thursdays of the month\, at St Philip Oak Bay 
 (2928 Eastdowne\, at Neil). The Thursday timeline will be:\n\n5.15-5.40 la
 test: optional max 20 min run-through of that day's music &amp\; non-Engli
 sh pronunciation as needed\na break for silence as we gather our thoughts\
 n5.45 start: 20-30 minutes of singing\, intercessory prayer\, and silence\
 nend not later than 6.15\n\nWe will enter and leave in silence. Congregati
 onal singing will be supported by the piano as needed. As the church is al
 ready set up for worship\, preparation is minimal: placing the Taizé icon
  in its stand with a tray for candles by it. St Philip's stained glass pro
 vides wonderful light and colour to the space\, and you are welcome to lig
 ht a candle by the Taizé icon at any time before or during the service. 
 \nIf you're interested in suggesting prayers\, reading or leading prayers 
 or intercessions\, or contributing cantor parts or instrumental parts to t
 he songs\, please contact Anna.\nMore about music:\nEveryone present is pa
 rt of the choir. Feel free to sing the melody or printed harmonies from wh
 erever you are sitting. The four or five songs for each service will be li
 sted here for those who would like to listen to or learn them ahead of tim
 e.\n2 June: The Kingdom of God  |  Confitemini Domino  |  Ô Toi\, l'a
 u-delà de tout  |  Let all who are thirsty come\nSongs will be added to
  this Youtube playlist for listening and singing along.\nPractice scores a
 re available at https://archives.taize.fr/en_article10308.html\nWe will si
 ng in English\, French\, Latin\, and other languages\, as is the tradition
  and practice at Taizé. Non-English pronunciation will be reviewed at the
  optional 5.15 run-through\; please feel free to hum along until you are c
 omfortable with the words.\nAbout the Taize style of meditative singing\nA
 bout silence in prayer\n** It can be very warm inside St Philip at the end
  of a sunny summer day. If it's too hot\, we'll gather at the labyrinth on
  the lawn instead.\nQuestions or suggestions? Contact Anna in the office a
