David Comeau to join Danny Hindman
in planting All Souls Anglican Church
Dear Redeemer Family,
I can’t decide whether this news is sad, exciting, or both… let’s go with both. Our own beloved David Comeau has prayerfully decided (with his wife Halie and their kids) to join the Hindman family in planting All Souls Anglican Church. This truly is the definition of bittersweet! The Comeaus moved to Richmond in the Summer of 2017 and have been with Redeemer ever since, serving and leading in a variety of roles. And now, a new season begins for them as they join the All Souls team where David will serve as an assisting priest.
At the end of the Spring semester, David will transition off of CCO staff, which means that we have begun to search for a new CCO campus minister for VCU. (If you or someone you know are interested, please contact me).
Church family - this really brings us to the heart of what it means to send out new church plants. It doesn’t just mean raising money, carefully strategizing, and casting vision, it means sending out our best people. This is a costly joy. We already knew it would be hard to send out the Hindmans, and now we know it will be even more costly as we send out the Comeaus!
However, it is also a joy, truly. We have the tremendous privilege of helping launch a new parish. Do we want them to grow and thrive and flourish? Of course we do! Therefore, we are glad to send out our best - for the glory of God and the good of our neighbors here in Richmond.
David & Halie, we love you and will miss you. We’re glad we get to keep you for a few more months as the All Souls team forms and works towards launching!
In the Father’s love,
