Resumption of Sunday Mass Obligation
Bishop Larry Silva announces the "Resumption of Sunday Mass Obligation":
Effective Easter Sunday, April 4 (or as of the Easter Vigil, April 3), I am ending the dispensation from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass, which has been in effect since mid-March, 2020. However, anyone who is sick, may have been exposed to anyone with COVID-19, or who has a health condition that would endanger themselves or others by being present in church, continues to be dispensed.

Week of May 22, 2022
He Loved
This past Tuesday I had the honor of attending the funeral service of a humble shepherd. He was a priest who played a pivotal role in the lives of my wife and I, my children, and countless others. He was a Monk of the Order of St. Benedict, a kind, wise and compassionate man. He lived with other members of the Benedictine community atop a mountain in Wailua overlooking the North shore. It was there at the Monastery where I would seek out his counsel from time to time and soon, he became my spiritual director. His name was Fr. Michael Sawyer OSB (no relation to Tom Sawyer). When he passed, I felt a deep sense of being left orphaned. Being human, we all know how it feels to lose someone close. We all grieve because that’s how we deal with the death of someone we love, it’s how we cope. Then I remembered that Jesus told us that he would never leave us orphaned. I’m relaying this story to you because in today’s Gospel there is one verse that I believe could only come through the Holy Spirit who’s timing always comes at the right time. That verse is, “If you loved me, you would rejoice that I am going to the Father.” These were the words of Jesus to his disciples but from where I was in my own self-centered sadness I felt as if it applied to Fr. Michael too. I did love Fr. Michael, and I knew he loved the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, so it was then that I was reminded that grieving was not what I should be doing. I should be rejoicing for Fr. Michael instead. And so, I did.
New COVID Guidelines
Beginning Saturday, March 26th, we will be adapting new protocols as put forth from the Diocese of Honolulu.
• We will continue to sanitize hands as you enter the church.
• Masks will be optional inside the church however, please be considerate of those around you by maintaining 3feet (or 2 chairs) distancing from your neighbor.
• Continue to share the sign of peace by a hand gesture, a smile or a head bow.
Traffic Advisory
Our CCD classes on Sunday mornings are back in session. We ask all drivers to PLEASE SLOW DOWN, follow traffic rules and watch out for the children. Let us all keep our children safe. Please arrive early for the Mass so you will avoid rushing to get into the church.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
New Holy Water Dispensers
Holy water will dispense when it detects your hand under the spout. Please remember that it is HOLY Water and should only be used to sign yourself with the sign of the cross. Please DO NOT “dip” your fingers into the drip-dish to avoid sharing of germs.
