About ImmanuelLutheransj.org

In 1940, a young Swiss Reformed pastor named Roger Schutz searched the Burgundy area of France for a place where he could build a community of reconciliation and be identified with wartime suffering. Settling in the tiny village of Taiz�, Roger began aiding Jewish people cross the border into Switzerland from the occupied zone of France. After the war, several other men joined Roger Schutz as they began their austere simple life as a �parable of communion.
