The silent moments and short texts are a relief. The music of Taiz comes into our churches more and more because there is a need for worship in this spirit. Many people were encouraged by this experience of praying together in a large number. At the prayers in the Cathedral we got the feeling that there are many of us. That's an important experience.
Many people live in communities where they are quite alone in their faith.
The background is the difficulties that many people encounter in living the experiences and insights they gained during their visits to Taiz . It's so easy to slip back into the old groove when you return home. That's why the brothers decided to go out in Europe and encourage the young adults to work at home in their communities and in their parishes. The Taiz brothers now leave it to the Uppsala churches and participants of the meeting to continue, just like they always do. When the candles were lit in the Cathedral during the Saturday evening prayer, all of them with fire from the Christ candle, flame to wick that became a flame to pass on to the next person, then it didn't matter at all what church this person usually attends.
