Worship Traditions

Holy Comforter has long been known for "pushing the envelope", liturgically speaking. Our particular strength among Episcopal churches in Richmond has been a willingness to experiment with our forms of worshiping God:

Candles on the altar (gasp!) in long-ago days when the Diocese of Virginia was a bastion of low-church evangelicalism.
Early enthusiasm for the Eucharistic-centered theology of the 1979 Book of Common Prayer.
A tradition of eclectic and inclusive music (choral and instrumental) and liturgical movement.


Worship Services

Choral Eucharist @ 10am every Sunday as usual. The best Liturgy in town.

Laying on of Hands and Anointing with the Holy Eucharist every Tues. @ 6pm.
