Here is a truly great pastor, someone who cared for people and who saw that God does so too. We can all take heart from a man who, if he had been a Catholic, would surely have been fast-tracked for canonization by now.

Indeed…
I had the pleasure of being in Taize the week before he died. As I was in the choir I got pretty close to him. His peaceful presence was just awesome. I remember one prayer he made about the Holy Spirit touching whatever is most fragile in us. He rarely spoke up in Church and so when he did it made a huge impact.
Thanks for posting these videos. I will relay them via my site.
