Since 1999, Seattle’s most peaceful New Year’s tradition. A large indoor labyrinth is laid out in the nave, with musical accompaniment by guest musicians . Invitations to other contemplative practices will be offered throughout the evening., including activities especially appropriate for younger children will also be available. Drop by any time between 6 p.m. and midnight; stay for a few minutes or a few hours. Since December 31 falls on a Sunday this year, at 9:30 p.m. The Compline Choir will chant the office as usual. At the stroke of midnight, a special, intimate service of Holy Eucharist is offered in the center of the labyrinth, observing the Feast of the Holy Name of Jesus—a beautiful way to begin 2024. Dean Thomason will preside.

Compline at 9:30 will be livestreamed. The remainder of the event, including the midnight Eucharist, will not.
