Camp Traditions: Compline

One of our camp traditions is doing compline before bedtime as our good-night prayer. We circle up, pass out the compline sheets, and end our night in the good ole' Episcopal liturgical fashion. As we grow up through the camps, there is something comforting in hearing the words "Keep watch, dear Lord, over those who work and weep this night" and "Lord you now have set your servant free to go in peace as you have promised."
