Compline Service
St. Tim’s offers candlelit, chanted Compline services on the second Tuesday of the month at 8pm, September–April.
The term “Compline” derives from the Latin completorium—completion of the working day. As the bedtime prayers of the church, Compline tends to be a contemplative experience that emphasizes quietness, reflection, and spiritual peace. In many convents and monasteries, it is customary to begin the “Great Silence” after Compline, during which the whole community, including guests, observes silence throughout the night until the morning service the next day. Our offering of Compline seeks to keep this contemplative spirit.
Our service follows the Order for Compline laid out in the Book of Common Prayer and is chanted by a small schola of singers. We begin and end with silence. The entire service lasts approximately 30 minutes. Congregants are welcome to join in the chanting as noted in the service bulletin or to worship in meditative silence.
Youth Handbell Choir Performance
Sunday, Dec. 1, which also is Advent 1, our new Youth Handbell Choir will debut during the Prelude of the 10:00 am service.
Please come early to hear our hard-working young musicians. They are so excited to play for you!

Rain Garden Tour
St. Tim’s will be installing a rain garden on our grounds this year.
A rain garden is planted to collect rain water and allow it to soak into the ground. Planted with grasses and flowering perennials, rain gardens can be a beautiful way to reduce runoff, help filter out pollutants, and provide food and shelter for butterflies, song birds and other wildlife.
Interested folks can join us at 577 on October 22 at 3:00 PM for a tour and informational session on rain gardens. There is a sign up sheet on the bulletin board for those interested or feel free to call the office to register.
