Thank you for joining us for Compline! We trust this liturgy will help you conclude your weekend with reflection, calm, and peace. Today is the 24th Sunday after Pentecost. You can download the bulletin for this service at SaintMichael.org/Compline. 

This week, the setting of the hymn “Te Lucis ante terminum”is by Thomas Tallis, while the Nunc Dimittis is sung in a four-part setting by Tomas Luis de Victoria.

Each week, in addition to the portions of the service which never change, the choir sings an anthem related to each Sunday’s place in the liturgical year. Tonight, for our Mission and Outreach Sunday, they will sing Jacobus Clemens non Papa’s motet “Ite in orbem”. The text is Mark 16:15-17.

“Ite in orbem universum praedicate dicentes.
Alleluia.
Qui crediderit et baptizatus fuerit, salvus erit.
Alleluia.”

“Go ye into all the world, and preach, saying,
Alleluia:
He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved.
Alleluia.”

Finally, now that we have begun reopening, know that you are always very welcome to attend Compline in-person. Each week, beginning Mondays at 10am and continuing until we reach our capacity, you can sign up for a seat for Compline at https://www.saintmichael.org/worshipt...
