The ancient office of Compline derives its name from a Latin word meaning ‘completion’ (completorium). It is above all a service of quietness and reflection before rest at the end of the day. This simple, short service has limited musical accompaniment and no sermon, although a short reflection on the readings may be included.

Welcome to the Villars English Church, an international English-speaking congregation in the alpine village of Villars-sur-Ollon since 1883. We meet in the Aiglon Chapel located in the centre of the village and serve the area's international communities as a space of regular prayer and community.

Whether you are in Villars on holiday or a long-time resident of the area, we invite you to join us for a time of simple worship. We would enjoy the opportunity to meet you.
