Br. John: A community of friends

Rediscovering the Church

The theme of "friendship" continues to gain in importance in the light of current social developments. For the Church and the understanding of the Church, friendship is a fundamental dimension, as Brother John shows against the background of the experience of Taizé. The Church comes into view anew as the great community of Jesus' friends - across all borders.

"I am convinced that the Christian Church, to the extent that it becomes conscious of its identity as a worldwide network of friends, can play a healing role in a world that is often blindly searching for its identity and unity."
(Brother John, Taizé)

Brother John, born in Philadelphia/USA, brother in Taizé since 1974, is known to many young people through his Bible studies.
