A message from Pastor Gae

​Friends,

I am excited that we are gathering in the Sanctuary once again!  For those that are unable to attend, we will be live streaming the 9:30 service through Zoom.  If you would like to connect with us on ZOOM, click on the button above for Sunday worship.

Our Centering Prayer and Bible Study will continue online through Zoom for now, and their links are also shown above.  

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+

WHAT'S HAPPENING

---

Worshiping together again!

After 3 long months, we were finally able to gather together in the Sanctuary on Sunday, June 14, at our regularly scheduled worship times. It was wonderful to see familiar faces (even though they were partially covered up)!  We were also able to connect with those at home through Zoom during the 9:30 service. Pictured here are screen shots from Zoom.

Thank you to everyone who shared suggestions about the service.  This is new for us and we’re wanting to get better. 

Bishop's Pentecost Sermon

On Pentecost Sunday, May 31, 2020, churches around the Diocese shared the Bishop's sermon during their online services.  In case you missed it, we share it here.

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.
