Giving thanks for the Rev. Dick Holley's ministry at St. Andrew's

Our  beloved priest and friend, the Rev. Dick Holley, retired on March 31 after nearly 53 years of ordained ministry. We honored him on Sunday, April 2.

Dick graduated from Virginia Theological Seminary and was ordained in 1964. After 25 years as an Army chaplain, Dick retired from the military in 1994. After his Army career, he served at rector at Emmanuel Episcopal Church in Portsmouth, VA for 10 years. In 1999 he came to St. Andrew's, where he has served as assisting priest for 17 years, particularly ministering to our retirement communities and homebound members.

We are so grateful for the impact of his gentle faithfulness in the lives of so many of us.
