The final "hour" of Christian prayer is Compline. The word comes to us from the Old French, complie, to complete or finish. Christian prayer sees sleep as a "little death" as it brings the day (a little life) to an end; Compline is a sort of little "Viaticum" or "food for the journey." We meet online daily at 9pm, and we finish with a poem.
