The service of Compline derives its name from the Latin word completorium meaning “completion.” It is a prayer of quietness and reflection, and is most effective following the completion of one’s daily work. Compline is perhaps the easiest prayer to add to your daily prayer life as it takes place right before bedtime. As Nighttime Falls is an attempt to bring the richness of Compline Prayer to a wider audience. This collection contains one complete compline service for each day of the week. Each prayer lasts about 15–20 minutes and includes an introduction, an examination of conscience, a hymn, psalmody, a scripture reading, a responsory, the Canticle of Simeon, a concluding prayer, and a blessing. Finally, each day concludes with the beautiful antiphon to the Blessed Virgin Mary, “Salve Regina.” As Nighttime Falls can be used to end youth retreats, Marriage Encounter weekends, parish missions, and other evening events. The companion 2-CD set contains seven complete compline services, one for each night of the week. You can pray in solitude just before going to sleep using the recording of As Nighttime Falls. It can also be used in communities when no pastoral musician is available. The enchanting Celtic charm of the hymn selections and psalms in this collection will engage you and draw you into this rich tradition of the church. At the end of each day let As Nighttime Falls offer you a way to give gratitude for the beauty and wonder of God.

Something cosmic happens at Easter. Under a full moon and a starry sky, the whole earth erupts into praise. Heaven and earth narrate the wonderful works of God, and all is music. The Risen One sets the rhythm, and all celestial and terrestrial voices are tuned for the song. With these words, Father Richard Fragomeni sets the tone for fifty days of meditations on the great Easter vigil song of praise, the Exsultet. Together with exquisite art by Jane Pitz, you can make these your daily prayerful reflections throughout the Easter season. Exult with all creation as you pray the Exsultet all Easter season long! Hardcover book with dustjacket includes a CD with a recording of the chanted Exsultet and more Easter music to accompany your daily meditations.

This setting of a well-known text by Trappist monk Thomas Merton (1915-1968) attempts to bring to life the Prayer of Trust. This text communicates the realization that although we cannot see the way ahead, we rest in the knowledge that we desire to be in the will of God. Therefore, we trust that God will walk with us daily, even through the valley of the shadow of death, and we will not be afraid. A powerful text for today and every day!
