Compline

The ancient office of Compline derives its name from a Latin word meaning ‘completion’ (completorium). It is above all a service of quietness and reflection before rest at the end of the day.

When the COVID emergency struck in 2020, we began offering the service of Compline online (via Zoom) on Wednesday evenings at 8:00. The service can be found on pages 127-135 in the Book of Common Prayer (BCP) and can be viewed or printed online. The service is about 15 minutes long and includes an opportunity to chat briefly beforehand. Participants are asked to mute their microphones when the service begins and may follow the service by repeating the responses and common prayers.
