St. Edward the Confessor Catholic Church

About this church

St. Edward the Confessor Catholic Church in Richmond celebrates a Saturday vigil Mass at 5 p.m. and Sunday Masses at 7:15, 8:45, and 11:15 a.m. and 5 p.m. The 11:15 liturgy is livestreamed. Weekday Mass begins at 9 a.m. Monday through Friday and is also available online. Paperless worship aids help guests follow the service, while recordings remain available after the livestream. Confession is listed Saturday at 4 p.m. and after weekday Mass at 9:30; during the school year, Tuesday's weekday opportunity is reserved for St. Edward-Epiphany School students. The visitor guide encourages respectable but comfortable dress.

The parish began in 1959, when Sunday Mass was held in Bon Air Public School. A church-and-school building followed in 1961, and the present worship space was dedicated in 1976. Its mission connects liturgical celebration with discipleship, spiritual formation, outreach, and Christ's message of love. Adult formation includes educational programs, book clubs, prayer-focused groups, retreats, workshops, and parish missions. Holy-day Masses are generally at 9 a.m., although the Mary, Mother of God schedule uses an evening Mass December 31 and a morning Mass January 1. Visitors should check the bulletin for holiday exceptions and any changes to confession or livestream availability.
