Taizé Worship Services: A summer Taizé worship service will take place at St. James Lutheran Church, 170 McMillan, Grosse Pointe Farms, on Wednesday, August 6, at 7 pm.  You are welcome to attend!  The beauty of Taizé worship is that it uses a form of short musical phrases with sing able, easily-memorized melodies.  The community of Taizé in France has worked for unity among Christians in all denominations.  The service will include Holy Communion for those who wish to partake.
