Across the world, Christian communities of all denominations worship in the style of the Taizé Community in France. Founded by Brother Roger in 1940, this monastic community attracts thousands of pilgrims a year to live and worship, the majority of them young people. Using simple chants, prayers and times of silence, worshippers are encouraged to grow ever deeper into a relationship with God.

The Advent Taizé service in the Cathedral, held in the Presbytery by candlelight, has established itself firmly in the preparations for Christmas.
