After such a difficult year due to the pandemic, international youth meetings have resumed in Taizé - Saône-et-Loire in France. In conjunction with the authorities, a health protocol has been put in place to ensure that safety measures are observed by all. Thanks to this - each week, several hundred people will be able to take part in activities: common prayers, small group sharing, workshops, practical tasks.

Among the events on this summer's programme, the organisers would like to mention in particular:

- From 15 to 18 July, the fourth friendship gathering of young Christians and Muslims, with the participation of leaders of both religions.

- From 22 to 29 August, a special programme dedicated to young adults between 18 and 35 years of age, based on the theme of Brother Alois' message for 2021 "Hoping in Season and out of Season".

- Every Saturday afternoon, a workshop will be broadcast online from Taizé. The themes addressed and the list of speakers are published online on the website: www.taize.fr/en_article31896.html

- Evening prayer is broadcast live each day in audio on the Taizé website, and the Saturday evening prayer in video on the Taizé YouTube channel - www.taize.fr/en_article28227.html

In recent months, the brothers have developed new products, such as the 'Carrés de Taizé' biscuits and homemade herbal teas, which are on sale in the showroom in Taizé and on the online sales site. See: https://shop.taize.fr/en/
