The student chaplains in Lund, the Lund Cathedral, Lunds Kristna Råd, the Taizé community and a group of Christian students from different churches are welcoming everyone, and especially people aged 18 to 35, to three days in the centre of Lund together with one of the brothers from Taizé.

- Brother Roger, the founder of the Taizé community
Here in Lund we look forward to a weekend with participants from the various faculties of the university and all the churches of our city, and with guests from other parts of southern Sweden. We sing together, share prayers and silence in the Cathedral, take part in the workshops called Signs of Hope and get to know the Taizé community a little closer.
A warm welcome to everyone!
