Prayer as Night Falls

Experiencing Compline

by Kenneth V. Peterson

This beautiful book allows you to experience and participate in the last of the daily cycle of fixed-hour prayer: Compline. Kenneth Peterson has sung Compline at St. Mark's Episcopal Cathedral in Seattle since the mid-1960s, and tells the story of the history and themes of the office, woven together with reflections from his own spiritual journey. Links are included to musical selections on prayerasnightfalls.com that illuminate the book's chapters, which provide a comprehensive look at this ever-popular contemplative prayer service at the end of the day.

Ken Peterson talks about his new book, Prayer as Night Falls.
