A message from Pastor Gae

​Friends,

Due to the virus and the necessity to keep social gathering to a minimum, our Bishop has said we will not be able to gather in the sanctuary for Sunday worship until further notice.  Although the church doors are closed, we invite you to walk our labyrinth located behind the sanctuary.  It’s a wonderful way to pray and exercise!

We have decided that it is important that we be connected.  Sunday worship is now on ZOOM, as are our study groups and Centering Prayer.  If you would like to connect with us on ZOOM, click on the buttons above for Sunday worship, Centering Prayer and Bible Study.  

If you are feeling anxious or worried, I encourage you to replace those thoughts with a verse from the Book of Proverbs:  I trust in the Lord with all my heart.  I lean not on my own understanding.  Say it over and over again.  And remember that God is always with us.  God is good. 

In Christ’s love,

Gae+

THIS IS MY OFFERING... MAHALO!

Prayer:  

Magnificent Holy Father. 
I stand before you at this altar. So many have given you more.
I may not have much I can offer. Yet what I have is truly yours. 
This is my offering, dear Lord. 
This is my offering to You, God.

Your offering enables us to maintain worship, prayer and study during this time of mandated social isolation. Help us continue to provide a beautiful, flourishing, and safe "Sanctuary for the Spirit" at our historic and faithful church on Kaua'i.
​
Change to Automated Giving: Thank you to those of you who automate your giving and having a plan to support your church. Your consistent, planned generosity makes it possible for us to budget and dream responsibly. Want to change to automated giving? It makes life easy, especially if you travel. Contact our Treasurer Tom Blankley for information at tblankley@msn.com. 

Live off island? If you have a prayer intention or would like to pray for those on our prayer list, email Pastor Gae at gdchalker@gmail.com.  To be part of the church collective means we all share in the cost of being a church. We want our church to have inspiring worship; pastoral care for those in need; beautiful church grounds; programs to learn and grow; and tools to reach out to those who are seeking a closer relationship with God.  See the different ways your can share your gifts, on our Giving page HERE.
