4th Friday Great Compline

The Order of Great Compline for the 4th Friday of the Great Fast, when it occurs during a week of Tone 7 and on the Eve of the March 9th Feast of the 40 Holy Martyrs of Sebaste.While it has become common in Greek recension churches (Greek Orthodox, Antiochean, Melkite, Romanian, etc) to celebrate Small Compline with sections of the Akathist on Fridays, the Slavic tradition (Ruthenian, Ukrainian, Russian, Belarusian, etc) follows the directives of the Triodion to do Great Compline (although simpler with less singing) with the Canon of the Departed in the Tone of the Week.
