“It is a loving, genuine, God centered congregation and biblically sound in teachings. The people are mature, kind and warm. The pastors shepherd the people sacrificially.”
“A great lil church in hawaii. We visited from Texas And decided to go to church here on Sunday. Everyone was very Friendly and the service was great. It's very small, but to me made it much nicer. The spirit is in this church. They are doing great things and i would come again next time I'm in hawaii.”
“Beautiful, historic Honolulu church building.The amazing banyan tree, mosaic of Jesus, cascading pool, garden patio, and lighthouse steeple make this church a unique stop, and place of serene worship. Conveniently located close to Waikiki.”
“My husband and I are both active duty and were looking for a doula for the birth of second son. We’d read a dozen books, attended birth courses, joined birth groups, etc. We reached out to Katja at Best Birth Hawaii. We really vibed with Erin and were stoked she was available to help us bring him into this world. She lived in the same area of the island and had a great perspective on birth. A lot of people asked why we would pay to have a doula and many more had questions on what they do. I’ll say this, at the end of the day we would have paid double! Erin is a badass and the best person to have in your corner whether you’re having a home or hospital birth. She helped us progress labor at home, came with a bag of tricks when she arrived at our home, coached us once we got to the hospital, advocated for us once there, played defense on an OB who was hoping to knock out a C-section, and even took some pictures since we couldn’t have a photographer (COVID restrictions). She’s strong, confident, experienced, professional, and knowledgeable. Mahalo Katja for having a great resource for birthing women and mahalo nui loa Erin for being part of our birth story!”

“One of the most versatile and modern churches with authentic love for people. Shows in the hospitality, the pastor and current up-to-date music talent. Exciting enthusiasm is in every message and encouragement is felt throughout. Highly recommended (after visiting many) this is my choice for spiritual food and fellowship.”
“Came for a funeral but I was blown away at how beautiful and gorgeous this church was. It was 9am and the sun lit up the inner sanctum and filled my heart with joy. Highly recommend just hope for happier reasons.”
“Our "Common Ground(s)," I believe, are discernable. Yes. Here in Hawaii, we represent very different religious beliefs. This is a very clear, undeniable fact. However, inspite of these undisputed issues, personally, I submit, that we share some spiritual matters, across our faiths, in common as well as many key humanitarian viewpoints. Dad and Mom recognized them and fully embraced this rich diversity. I will carefully endeavor to illustrate and highlight our many common perspectives, not dwell on our differences.And, you may ask, "What is an unmistakable Japanese castle doing standing in the middle of the Makiki community in Honolulu, Hawaii?" You will be amazed to discover, that the answer is very simple. The church founders, who came from Kochi, Japan, built the church structure and sanctuary, based upon popular church hymns like "A Mighty Fortress Is Our God." And, this church design is an exact, although somewhat smaller, replica of the Kochi castle, in Kochi City, on the island of Shikoku, one of the four prominent islands, which make up Japan.Allow me then, to tackle these rich, amazing local historical and cultural realities as well as fascinating diversity.”
“I went there for weekday mass today because I live close by and used to go to this church before and it was a great service and had special intentions prayed for me”
