Contemplative Prayer and Chant
Grace Church-Brooklyn Heights will be expanding its regular Tuesday evening Centering Prayer group to include Taizé chanting, a simple, contemplative form of musical worship. Leading the Taizé chanting will be Grace Church Seminarian Matt Oprendek, an accomplished pianist who will be working with different musicians at each service. In addition to the chanting, the program will include 20 minutes of centering prayer plus lectio divina, contemplative reading of a Scripture passage.
