A message from our Interim Rector, the Reverend R. Bruce Birdsey :

"On behalf of the entire congregation, I warmly welcome you to The Church of the Holy Comforter. We are a hospitable parish, eager to include all sorts and conditions of folk as one of our old prayers put it. That is doubly true at the present moment, in which we find ourselves in a time of transition. Such times are fertile with opportunity for fresh ideas, energetic initiatives, and new talents. We would love for yours to become part of the mix. God’s blessings and all good wishes to you and yours."

• June 8, 7:00pm: "HoCo Through the Seasons"

Holy Comforter, Richmond, will offer a concert-interactive musical event Sunday, June 8 at 5 pm, "HoCo Through the Seasons." The event will move musically through the liturgical year, alternating congregational song with anthems by choirs. The program will celebrate HoCo's diversity of music, from Medieval Chant to Bluegrass, Spanish to Chinese, organ to drums-galore. We will record the event to make available for newcomers, shut-ins, and for people just to obtain to listen to or sing with in the shower or car!
