“The vision of peace and reconciliation in ‘God’s today’ which guided Brother Roger’s commitment and that of the community he founded has been a source of inspiration and spiritual renewal for generations of young people, in Europe and throughout the world. Under his spiritual leadership, the Taizé Community has offered a model of how the praise of God is integrally linked to solidarity with the least fortunate. For many of us, Brother Roger incarnated the hope that the Christian faith can bring to the world.”
