Contemplative Taize Style Service for 3rd Sunday of Advent

by Christine Sine

It is wonderful to have these contemplative services to help us enter into the spirit of the season of Advent. I so appreciate St Andrews Episcopal Church in Seattle giving me permission to repost these. I am always delighted to hear how many of you are also blessed by these.

A contemplative service with music in the style-of-Taize for the Third Sunday of Advent. Carrie Grace Littauer, prayer leader, with music by Kester Limner and Andy Myers.

Permission to podcast/stream the music in this service obtained from One License with license #A-710-756 with additional notes below.
