"Brother Roger died as he lived, praying at the centre of his community," said the World Council of Churches acting general secretary Geneviève Jacques in a message of condolence sent to the Taizé community today. Expressing "shock" and "sadness" at the death of the community's founder brother Roger Louis Schutz-Marsauche, Jacques stated that "his witness to the gospel and to ecumenical dialogue has been enormously influential over the past century".
