Father's Day


This past Sunday (Trinity Sunday) we honored our Dads on Father's Day with a Chili & Rice Brunch and fun fellowship.


The Sunday School made a wonderful Tree of Love for the dads and granddads.

VISIT TO MAUI


This past weekend, Rev. Libby traveled to Maui. She attended the 50th anniversary celebration of Trinity-by-the-Sea, Kihei, on Saturday; she is pictured here with clergy colleagues Austin, Amy, Hau'oli, Linda and Bishop Bob, who also joined the celebration.


On Sunday, Rev. Libby preached and celebrated the Eucharist at Holy Innocents, which currently is worshipping at the Methodist Church in Napili, just north of Lahaina. (Coffee hour pictured below.)


Faith and hope are strong as we all pray for and support new beginnings in Lahaina!


From Rev Libby: "I am grateful for the support of our Holy Nativity vestry, who encourage Rev. Jenn and me to connect with other congregations in our diocese and take on diocesan committee responsibilities throughout the year."
