We, the members of Holy Comforter Catholic Church, given life by God, offered salvation by Jesus Christ, and led by the Holy Spirit, believe that we are called to worship, discipleship, outreach, and evangelization within our parish and to the downtown community, consistent with the teachings of the Holy Roman Catholic Church.

Our parish’s Patron, the Third Person of the Most Holy Trinity, brings the life of grace to our souls, giving us the words to pray to the Father through the Son with a burning spirit of charity. His feast day is Pentecost, which we will prepare for with our annual 40 Hours Devotion. A full schedule is linked below, and we will begin inviting parishioners to sign up for adoration slots in late April/early May.
