Dr. Shannon MacVean-Brown to be their next bishop. Hilary was one of three nominees. On the day of the election, Hilary was supported by out-of- town friends, and then at HoCo by many parishioners. From Hilary: “Thank you all for your support and prayers through this process. I am so thankful for you and the ministry that we share. I look forward to many more years as your rector.” Pentecost Donation to Side by Side Currently we provide a light supper once a month By Bruce MacAlister to the meeting of the Side by Side transgender The cash or donations not otherwise group. designated go to Side by Side on the Sunday we call Pentecost. Being a teen and trying to figure out who you are is tough. (Being the parent of a teen is not easy either.) For teens who feel they may not fit the expected heterosexual model, it’s even tougher. Side by Side provides a safe haven for these young people. To further support these youth, the Side by Side staff and volunteers meet regularly with a broad range of RVA businesses and civic organizations to garner support. Holy Comforter goes back to the beginnings when it was called ROSMY. A parishioner convinced the clergy and Vestry to provide the initial office space for this new group. It was not easy for many at HoCo but they - we - stepped up. News of the Church of the Holy Comforter - Richmond, Virginia - 2 A Message from Hilary + Joe has a new stole Dear Friends and Companions in Ministry, On the occasion of our beloved Deacon Joe serving on his first Cursillo Team As we head into summer, I pray that you (weekend #166), the HoCo Cursillo community will have times of refreshment and celebration. presented him with a stole (designed by Cindy Congratulations to the many people in our lives who have graduated from various schools and Hanayak and Carol Gibbs and constructed by programs.

I hope you will be Curious about what “Palanca” is? Ask Carol - able to attend. Pentecost she’d love to tell you! is an important day for all Christians, but it is also our special day as the Church of the Holy Comforter. We are named for the Holy Spirit, therefore, Pentecost is our Feast Day. How is the Spirit moving in your life and in the life of our church? Together, we can discern some of the movements of the Spirit. Though as Jesus told Nicodemus, the Spirit is mysterious. Later in the summer, we will offer Harry Potter Vacation Bible School. Some may wonder how Harry Potter and the Bible go together. When I offered this program in Winchester, VA, years ago, we received a phone call saying we were in league with the Devil. We received a lot of attention for this program, wanted and unwanted. What some may not understand is that Harry’s journey is the hero’s journey of self-discovery. When you look for them, there are many connections with the great stories of the Bible. Harry Potter gives us a great way to share what we believe about God and each other: that God has created each of us in God’s image, we are a delight to God and gifts to the world. God calls each person to live as their authentic selves, and, in our authenticity, we have much to give to others. Harry Potter is not just for children; join us August 11 - 15 in the evenings to share in the hero’s journey. Consider inviting families with children who you know and do not yet come to our church. Wishing you Joy and Peace, Hilary+ News of the Church of the Holy Comforter - Richmond, Virginia - 3 Mimi Berry - “If Mimi had been at the wedding party at Rest in Peace Cana, Jesus would’ve sat down at her table to hang out with her. In truth, Jesus hung out with Mimi all the time, and we all felt it.” Luke Berry May 21 on Facebook For decades Mimi was a beloved member of “My heart aches to let loved ones know that HoCo, active in many areas of parish life.

Mimi’s Light By Laura Hunt and Love Will Shine On.” Pentecost, celebrated on the seventh From a few of her many friends Sunday after Easter, commemorates the descent “Mimi had a 100 watt smile!” of the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles and other followers of Jesus while they were gathered “I will miss her together in Jerusalem. For Christians, this event, sweet, smiling face described in Acts of the Apostles, marks the birth sitting across from of the early Church. me in choir.” I always wondered why the apostles were gathered together on that particular day. What were they celebrating? It turns out that Moses told the Hebrews that 49 days after Passover and the Exodus, they would be given the Torah (The Law). Indeed, Shavuot, the Festival of “Weeks” in Hebrew is the ultimate point of Passover. God delivered the Israelites from Egypt so they would be free to receive God’s gift of the revelation of Torah seven weeks later on Mt. Sinai. Described in Leviticus 23, The Feast of Weeks “Dorey and Mariah, is the second of the three “solemn harvest feasts” when they were young: when all Jewish males were required to travel ‘We want to drive a to Jerusalem to offer First Fruits in the Temple Honda when we grow up, because Mimi drives a as a way of expressing thanksgiving for God’s Honda, and we want to be just like Mimi’.” provision: a sheaf of barley on the first day of Pesach (Passover), a sheaf of wheat on Shavuot, “People often say I give good hugs - Mimi and the first fruits of the olive and grape harvests gave the best hugs ever.” on the Feast of Tabernacles. “What I think of when I think of Mimi is her After the destruction of the temple in AD70, laugh - deep, raucous, full-bodied.

    The Mamas and the Papas – California dreamin’ “If you’re going to San Francisco be sure to wear some flowers in your hair” (John Phillips) 1.Els autors Influenciat per la “Generació Beat”, a mitjan anys 60 té lloc a San Francisco l’eclosió del moviment hippy. En la seva vessant musical, aquest nou moviment apostava decididament per una línia contestatària i subversiva, tant musicalment com en el contingut dels textos de les cançons, ara carregats de missatge. A partir d’aquest moment, la música passa a ser el mitjà d’expressió de la joventut, de la seva angoixa i del seu desig d’un altre món més lliure i just. I també de la crida per la pau, just en un moment de gran rebuig a la guerra del Vietnam. Els hippys predicaven l’evasió, la fugida (també a través de les drogues) d’un món i d’una societat incomprensibles. Els seus profetes literaris van ser Kerouac i Ginsberg. I entre els musics més significatius que van transmetre aquest missatge trobem The Mamas and the Papas. The Mamas and the Papas va ser una de les principals formacions de folk-pop sorgides a mitjan anys 60. Conjuntament amb altres grups, com ara Byrds, Beach Boys o Turtles, van omplir les llistes d’èxits de l’època amb cançons carregades de cors harmònics. El segell identificatiu del grup va ser la barreja de veus masculines (John Phillips i Denny Doherty) i femenines (Michelle Phillips i Cass Elliott) i la combinació de lletres sòlides amb arranjaments dels millors músics californians del moment.

I have only included text. If you wish to view the embedded photos please refer to the web site. gdm “There's something happening here, What it is ain't exactly clear” Join me now, if you have the time, as we take a stroll down memory lane to a time nearly four- and-a-half decades ago – a time when America last had uniformed ground troops fighting a sustained and bloody battle to impose, uhmm, ‘democracy’ on a sovereign nation. It is the first week of August, 1964, and U.S. warships under the command of U.S. Navy Admiral George Stephen Morrison have allegedly come under attack while patrolling Vietnam’s Tonkin Gulf. This event, subsequently dubbed the ‘Tonkin Gulf Incident,’ will result in the immediate passing by the U.S. Congress of the obviously pre-drafted Tonkin Gulf Resolution, which will, in turn, quickly lead to America’s deep immersion into the bloody Vietnam quagmire. Before it is over, well over fifty thousand American bodies – along with literally millions of Southeast Asian bodies – will litter the battlefields of Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia. For the record, the Tonkin Gulf Incident appears to differ somewhat from other alleged provocations that have driven this country to war. This was not, as we have seen so many times before, a ‘false flag’ operation (which is to say, an operation that involves Uncle Sam attacking himself and then pointing an accusatory finger at someone else).
