Holy Comforter Episcopal Church

About this church

Holy Comforter Episcopal Church in Atlanta gathers for worship on Sundays at 10:30 a.m. and on Wednesdays at 6:30 p.m. Both services center on Holy Eucharist, and a shared meal follows each one. The congregation dates to 1893, and its worship draws largely on the Book of Common Prayer. Visitors who are unfamiliar with the prayer book are told that someone will help them find their place. A sung Compline service is also held on the first Tuesday evening of each month from September through May, and sermon recordings and a YouTube channel are available for anyone who cannot attend in person.

The church is the home of the Friendship Center, a ministry that runs an inclusive day program on Tuesdays and Thursdays for adults affected by mental health challenges and poverty. Related activities include an arts program, a garden where plants are grown and sold, and gatherings such as bingo, yoga and singing. The Wednesday evening service is followed by a community dinner, and Sunday worship is followed by a community lunch. The church is located at 737 Woodland Avenue in Atlanta, and the website describes how to be baptized or transfer membership. Confirm current times on the website before visiting.
