C&SI - 2022 Letter from Taize - 9 January 2022 (S2E8)

On this weeks podcast John and Shane take a virtual visit to France and to the Community of Taize reflecting on the 2022 Letter from Taize - Becoming Creators of Unity.

We have regular run through our saints of the coming week and we also select our patron saints for 2022. Our podcast for 2022 is St Anne - grandmother of Jesus.  You can get your own patron saint for the year HERE.

Our reflection on the Sunday gospel is on Lukes account of the baptism of the Lord (Lk 3:15-16, 21-22).
