Taizé will start the 18th season at St. Luke's by remembering all who suffered loss and sickness during this time of pandemic, and by looking in hope and faith to God's healing grace in our lives. We invite all to this quiet hour of prayer and singing the simple meditative music of Taizé chant. If you are a regular or a curious newcomer to Taizé, please join us online on Tuesday, October 12.

The night is for stillness.
Let us be still in the presence of God. (New Zealand Night Prayer)
 
Compline is an ancient monastic service, dating back to at least the sixth century, that provides a quiet and reflective end to the day. Through the course of this short service, we give thanks for the joys we have experienced, reflect on the sins we have committed, and look forward to the coming day as we prepare for sleep. At St. Luke’s, we began observing Compline on Zoom in March 2020 to close the day with a brief respite from all of the fears and anxieties associated with the evolving health crisis. Since then, we have continued to look forward to this weekly moment of peace. 

We hold our Compline services on Zoom every Thursday night at 8:30 and alternate between two different liturgies. We use the service from the Book of Common Prayer (BCP) on the first, third and fifth Thursdays of each month, and the New Zealand Night Prayer the other weeks. We invite you to join us for, in the words of the BCP liturgy, this “perfect end” to the day.
