SUMMARY:Join Bishop Graham on a pilgrimage to Taize
DESCRIPTION:19-28 July 2025 \nYoung people aged 18-35 are once again invited to join a group travelling from the Diocese of Norwich\, 19-28 July 2025\, for a truly unique experience of community\, worship and prayer with Taizé.  Young adults from many different backgrounds and denominations travel to Taizé for a unique Christian experience of openness\, solidarity and encounter. \nBishop Graham said: “A pilgrim is someone who leaves the comfort of home to travel beyond familiar boundaries\, to cross into new landscapes and places\, and to step out into the unknown on an adventure with God. That’s my invitation to you – to experience something new in your journey with Jesus in the rhythm of prayer and a simple life at Taizé.” \nFor 2025\, the prices are as follows: \n\nStudents and those out of work – £165.00\nChurch workers – £275.00\nThose in full-time employment – £330.00\n\n\nBursaries available for those who need additional support \n\nBeing at Taizé is an experience rather than a ‘talk’. This means it is accessible to those who do not think of themselves as being religious\, as well as those of other faiths. Each day in the community includes services\, biblical reflections\, small international discussion groups\, practical activities\, and prayer with the whole community. As well as this\, it offers a safe way for young people to experience a wide range of languages and cultures. \nTo sign up\, please email:  taize.pilgrimage@dioceseofnorwich.org. Spaces will be allocated on a first come\, first served basis. \nKnow a young person who might be interested? Visiting Taizé has been a transformational experience for many\, many people. If you know a young person who would enjoy and benefit from this opportunity\, please do share this with them! Thank you.
