After 18 years as head of the ecumenical monastic community Taizé, Brother Alois Loeser has chosen a successor.
Taizé is an ecumenical monastic community founded in a small town in the Burgundy territory of France in 1940. Its focus is promoting faith and Christian unity among young people, many of whom participate in the community through retreats and other events. In an interview with “EWTN News Nightly” this week, Loeser, 69, said the death of Schütz is one of his most significant memories from his 49 years as a Taizé member.
The prior explained that today the community has approximately 90 brothers from different Christian denominations. “We want to live unity, the unity of Christians,” he said. “Christ asks us to be one so that the Gospel can really shine in the world.”“Some years ago already I felt like we had entered a new stage of our life as a community,” he said. “There are so many changes in the world, in the Church. There are also many more new brothers who did not know our founder, Brother Roger.
