Yesterday's office of Compline, chanted by the women of the Compline Choir, was offered with special intentions for those affected by the shooting at Seattle Center on Sunday evening.

We pray for healing for the wounded; comfort for the grieving; and for the repose of the souls of the dead. And we pray for peace in our city, and for an end to gun violence in our country.
