Blending ancient and modern, these brief services of night prayer, otherwise known as 'compline', draw our day to a close with God. Comforting ancient words combine with more recent insights and concerns to produce orders of service with variety and spaciousness. The set prayers help us to pray when we are tired and provide a framework to cradle times of reflection on the day that has passed. In these services of prayer, the order of compline has been reorganised to better reflect the pattern of the Lord's prayerAvailable both as paper and electronic versions.
