A few times each year, the community of Taizé invites families with children ages 3–14 to join them for a week of prayer, meditation, and international fellowship. The Taizé community was founded in 1940 and is an ecumenical Christian community a few hours southeast of Paris, France. Each year, over 100,000 people from around the world travel to Taizé to spend a week in contemplative communion. During the family weeks, kids get to take part in something like an international vacation Bible school, while parents gather in small groups to discuss faith and parenting. Mike Mullin had the opportunity to participate in this program three years ago, and he is excited about the prospect of sharing this experience with more members of our Asbury First family. 

All parents are invited to join us for an interest and informational meeting on Zoom on Tuesday, June 22 at 7 pm. We will talk more about the program, the costs, travel logistics, and potential travel dates. This is just an interest meeting, and no commitments are expected at this time.
