Compline: A form of night prayer for 16th March 2020 (or any evening!)


Listen Later

Compline is an ancient form of night prayer. It's often the last thing spoken just before bedtime, so that we end the day with God. 

Whether your day has been a joy or  stressful (and on this day, 16th March 2020, Prime Minister Boris Johnson advised people living in England to avoid social gatherings and to self isolate for at least 14 days if your someone you live with is ill, so there may be a few of us feeling a little perturbed) night prayer helps us calm our hearts and minds, so we go to bed having committed ourselves and the world around us into God's keeping. 

So why not light a candle or dim the lights, get comfortable and we'll end the day together in prayer...


(ps, if you  like you can find the words on the Church of England's Daily Prayer App)
