Compline, 8 p.m.
Sunday, May 04, 2025, 8:00 PM - 8:30 PM
May 4 at 8 PM: Compline considers the Pilgrim's Way
Come, my Joy, my Love, my Heart;
Such a Joy as none can move,
Such a Love as none can part,
Such a Heart as joys in love.
"We can make detours and take byways; we can stand still; perhaps also we can, in a certain sense, go backward. Above all we can progress in the true direction. Only one alternative is barred to us, that of not being en route at all, of not being 'on the way.' Thus, we speak of the 'pilgrimage' of this earthly life." (Josef Pieper)
Please join us for compline on May 4th at 8 PM. The service meditations will center on our lives as pilgrims. The choral offerings will include Vaughan Williams' "The Call," as well as "The King of Love," a Welsh setting of the 23rd Psalm, sung to an Irish tune.
