Community Compline

NightSong: A Compline Experience is a new ministry created by Saint Philip’s as a way to share the beauty of the Anglo-Catholic tradition, liturgy, and music with the wider Tucson community. It is a unique form of outreach and evangelism.

NightSong will take place at the MSA Annex twice this fall: Friday, September 23, and Friday, October 21.

NightSong will also join in the Procession of Little Angels at Armory Park on Saturday, November 5.

The mission of the Procession of Little Angels is to help youth have an understanding and open relationship with the concept of death—an invaluable mission which Saint Philip’s has hoped to become involved with for some time. This annual event is part of the Tucson All Souls Procession, and Saint Philip’s and NightSong will participate for the first time.

Another facet of Saint Philip’s community outreach is “Bible on Tap.” At 6:30pm every Sunday, a Beloved corps member hosts a conversation about scripture, life, and God at Westbound, a bar in the Annex on Tucson’s west side. All are welcome.

NightSong is a collaborative effort that includes Flam Chen and Many Mouths One Stomach (organizers of the annual All Souls Procession and Dia de San Juan), merchant Why I Love Where I Live (that sells merchandise to help fund NightSong), Episcopal Campus Ministries, Beloved in the Desert, and Saint Philip’s staff—Dr Justin Appel and Christopher Campbell.
