TAIZÉ WORSHIP FOR LENT.
Friday, 12 March 7.30pm-8.30pm, Holy Cross Church, 4 Macmillan St Helensburgh. You are invited to a simple Taizé service providing an opportunity for candlelight prayer, meditation and singing. It is a time to stop, reflect, and rejuvenate during Lent. With periods of silence, there is time for personal contemplative prayer. The Holy Cross music ministry will lead us in the prayerful, simple, repetitive songs of Taizé. Gathered in the presence of Christ we allow the mystery of God to become tangible through the beauty of simplicity. Please come along and invite your friends of all faiths to join us. A simple supper will follow in Mary MacKillop House. For information contact the parish on 4294 1009.
