This section of the site provides: press reports on the meeting, Brother Roger’s meditations during the evening prayers, messages received for the meeting from Pope John Paul II, Secretary General of the United Nations Mr Kofi Annan, Patriarch Alexis II of Moscow, and the Archbishop of Canterbury Dr Rowan Williams. 6 January 2007 The 40,000 young adults gathered together by Taizé in the Croatian capital from 28 December to 1 January were very warmly welcomed by the city and by the families. The aim was to go to the sources of trust in God and in others. Just before the departure for Zagreb, the final practical information sheet had recommended taking warm clothes. The advice was far from superfluous. Huddled behind a small mountain, the Croatian capital is not sheltered from the rigours of winter. Prudently, everyone had brought woolly hats, thick anoraks and sturdy (...) 5 January 2006 50,000 young adults in Milan from 28th December 2005 until Sunday 1st January 2006 for Taizé’s 28th European young adult meeting, the first since the death of frère Roger. A text message from a friend during the night. Anne remembered long afterwards how she heard about the death of Brother Roger on 16 August last year, while she was on holiday. “My first reaction was to wonder how such violence could exist,” says the 28 year old school teacher. “I had in mind images of the village of Taizé, of the church, so calm; in such a setting, such an act (...) “If at present we are undertaking a pilgrimage of trust on earth with young people from every continent, that is because we are aware of how urgent peace is. We can contribute to peace to the extent that we try and reply to the following questions by the life we live: Can I become a bearer of trust where I live? Am I ready to understand others better and better?” This is how Brother Roger spoke on December 28th to the 40,000 young adults together for the 27th annual meeting.“I rediscovered my parish through the meeting” Some 10,000 families (...) “Whoever looks to God will shine; their faces will not be downcast,” sings the psalmist. In Hamburg, in trust and simplicity, one could see a light shining on the face of the Church. That light revealed its true face, its face of communion. In Hamburg as in many other places, the Church is sometimes viewed as an out-of-date institution, with no appreciation of the beauty of today’s world, a vestige of the past that is afraid to accept present-day society. And yet it bears within it a Gospel reality, sometimes concealed, but still intact in (...) This winter, just a few days after the Copenhagen summit meeting that gave the final endorsement for the entry into the European Union of ten new central European countries, almost 80,000 young people from an even larger Europe came together in Paris to celebrate the Risen Christ, the bearer of peace. Perhaps more than in previous years, the European meeting was noticed and understood far beyond religious circles. “Christian Europe from Copenhagen to Taizé,” “The united Europe of young Christians in Taizé,” “The young people of Taizé will make (...) Opening one’s door to strangers is never easy. As a result of months of work, many people could be welcomed not just in Budapest but in many places in the surrounding area. The morning of December 28th, thousands of Hungarian families were impatiently waiting to meet the young people they would be hosting for the next five days. Will they manage to arrive? Will they be delayed by the snowstorm blanketing part of central Europe? Will customs formalities at the border take an incredibly long time? How will we deal with the language problem? Traffic signs directed the coaches to pass by the hill of Montjuic, through a park of palm trees and cacti that overlooks the sea and offers a magnificent panorama of the city. “What a beautiful city! Such light! And what warmth!” You could hear these words in the coaches, especially in those which were arriving from the North of Europe. A Long Preparation Young people from many different countries, as well as those from the city and the region, had spent several months preparing for the meeting. But for all of them, it was a real discovery (...)

«Ako trenutno poduzimamo hodočašće povjerenja na zemlji s mladima sa svih kontinenata, to je zato što smo svjesni koliko je mir hitno nužan. Miru možemo doprinjeti do te mjere da načinom svoga života odgovaramo na sljedeća pitanja: Mogu li postati nositeljem mira tamo gdje živim? Jesam li spreman napredovati u razumijevanju drugih?» Tako se 28. prosinca Brat Roger obratio 40.000 mladih okupljenih na 27. godišnjem susretu.«Kroz susret sam iznova otkrila svoju župu» Oko 10.000 obitelji iz Lisabona i okolice otvorilo je svoja vrata kako bi ugostile (...) 10. kolovoza 2004 «U Gospodina gledajte i razveselite se, da se ne postide lica vaša…», pjeva psalmist. U Hamburgu se u povjerenju i jednostavnosti moglo vidjeti svjetlo koje sjaji na licu Crkve. To je svjetlo otkrilo njeno pravo lice, lice zajedništva. U Hamburgu, kao i na brojnim drugim mjestima, Crkvu se ponekad promatra kao staromodnu instituciju koja ne poštuje ljepotu današnjega svijeta, ostavštinu prošlosti koja se ne usudi prihvatiti društvo današnjice. A ipak u sebi nosi evanđeosku stvarnost, nekad skrivenu, no još uvijek netaknutu u svojoj prvobitnoj (...) 14. listopada 2004 Ove se zime, samo nekoliko dana nakon sastanka na vrhu u Kopenhagenu i konačne privole da u Europsku Zajednicu uđe deset novih srednjeeuropskih zemalja, gotovo 80’000 mladih iz još šire Europe okupilo u Parizu kako bi slavili Uskrslog Krista, mironosca.Možda još više no proteklih godina, Europski je susret primjećen i promatran široko izvan vjerskih krugova. «Kršćanska Europa iz Kopenhagena u Taizé», «Ujedinjena Europa mladih kršćana u Taizéu», «Mladi iz Taizéa načinit će Europu», «Pariz, prijestolnica povjerenja», bili su naslovi u nekoliko važnih (...)
