SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: MAUI FIRE RESPONSE

High winds from Hurricane Dora and drought conditions combined to accelerate the growth of brush fires that devastated the Lahaina community in Hawaiʻi. Episcopal Relief & Development is in contact with the Episcopal Diocese of Hawaiʻi in the wake of wildfires that have killed many people and displaced hundreds of families on Maui. They are calling on churches to help support the response.

Please consider visiting episcopalrelief.org to make a donation today. If you prefer to mail a donation, please make checks payable to Episcopal Relief & Development. Mail to: PO Box 7058, Merrifield, VA 22116-7058.

In addition, the Episcopal Diocese of Hawai'i has now set up a dedicated webpage for Maui disaster relief with all the latest information and updates, including giving opportunities. Go to https://www.episcopalhawaii.org/maui-relief.html

St. John's by-the-Sea Episcopal Church was founded in 1931 to minister to local Hawaiian fishermen and their families. Today our little rural church in Kāne‘ohe has reaped a rich spiritual harvest. While still predominantly Hawaiian, our congregation is an increasingly eclectic mix of people who relish the warmth and informality at St. John's. We strive to live out our Christian faith through our love for God, for each other, and for the world around us.

St. John's by-the-Sea Episcopal Church continues to honor its Hawaiian heritage by singing hymns in Hawaiian as well as English, by incorporating Hawaiian values into all the church’s activities, and by conducting the Holy Eucharist partly or completely in the Hawaiian language several times a year. Hawaiian Eucharists and Ali‘i Sundays honor and commemorate the lives of our ali‘i.

In alignment with the Resolution of the Episcopal Church in Hawai‘i, we affirm that St. John'sBy-the-Sea Episcopal Church is a safe space of peace and a "gun-free zone."

PLEASE CONTINUE SUPPORTING ST. JOHN’S
Please continue your donations and pledge payments in support of St. John’s ongoing operations and community engagement.
