Contact me: matej@socialna-akademija.si Brother Emile of Taizé is - I hope I can say this - my long-time friend and companion when I do the spiritual exercises in silence in this beautiful French village. We met for the first time in 2000, during my very first silence, which still has an important meaning in my life. Even then Brother Emile surprised me with his ability to listen, to give the right words, and above all with his ability to point to God in my life. I can say that he was one of my most important burning bushes through which God spoke to me. Therefore, when He came to Ljubljana, I just had to satisfy my curiosity about what were HIS burning bushes and how he responded to them.
