Now, my home parish after weeks of trying different Catholic Churches. Here's why:…read more 1) Franciscan spirituality: a true holy man resides here as our beloved pastor. He is a Capuchin Franciscan who is the model priest. Firm and no nonsense (which I love) but with the compassion and kindness of Christ. Franciscans celebrate the presence of God in all of His creations: animals, plants, sun, moon, stars... yes even rainbows! Father's homilies might run a tad long, but they are jam packed with rich poignant truth-based concepts grounded in natural law and Christian "bedrock". I wouldn't wish one word less...every word of his helps me defuse the confusion of Christianity and I always come away enlightened. 2) adherence to the truth: so many times we gravitate to that which we want to hear versus what we need to hear. How many times do we "google" a topic but only chose to read the posts we happen to agree with, while dismissing the rest, regardless if they are more truthful than our previously adopted biases? That's not helping us to fully use the gifts of logic and reason God gave us. What personal growth is there in only listening to our own self centered egos and only those thoughts that seem to validate our conceits? In a world full of anger and shouting and hate and political correctness, and euphemism....it's nice to hear the unvarnished truth. I welcome truth the same way a poor, naked man welcomes warm clothes in the middle of a blizzard. 3) Aloha: I'm aware that this word may not mean today what it meant years ago, but in general (aside from the occasional curmudgeon like myself), the people here are warm, friendly, and try their best to imitate Christ. Do we fail? You bet. Several times a day... but we are called to "press on til the end"... and so we try. Most everyone here radiates Aloha. 4) Keeps traditions alive: while we all need to do a better job liturgically in some areas of tradition (as spelled out clearly in Sacrosanctum Concillium), we are one of the few churches that celebrates one Sunday Mass each month in the Hawaiian language. Come join us the third Sunday of the month to experience this. It is both amazing and inspirational. 5) History and Architecture: we are one of the few churches on island that did not jump on the 70s/80s/90s bandwagon of architecture revolution and renovate to a circular design (which is actually paganesque and not Christian). Our architecture reflects centuries of Catholic imagery... we have a proper Nave, Sanctuary, Altar and Tabernacle that is the central focus of our liturgy since everything visually in our architecture points to Christ as the center of our worship, and the presence of Christ in our midst. Our church was first established in 1840 as a result of the then persecution that drove the move of the faithful from Honolulu to the Windward side. Saint Father Damien of Molokai visited and said Mass here! The original wooden church structure burned down in a fire back in 1937. By 1939, a new block constructed church was built (which is the current one today). Our bell in our tower was a gift from the kind people of Nantes, France, and has a dedication and year marking on the bell that shows it was cast in 1845! There is something about the sanctity and feel of a church where so many generations of Hawaiians have worshipped in and prayed. It gives the church, a peaceful holy feel. If you are looking for a place to worship, you might like this parish. In any case, peace and goodness to you all... or in the words of St Francis d'Assisi: "Pax et Bonum ".

My children and I don't go to church as often as we'd like to or should! I grew up with no real…read moreties to any religious group so I've always been open in that aspect of my life. When I was younger, on occasion I would be dragged to church with my pretentious aunt. It was completely unnecessary and hypocritical. I love my aunt for trying, but really, who was she kidding? Anyway, my main point being... my early experiences with church were always boring! Faith Assembly of God is anything but. We live very close by, a couple of blocks away literally. I had never thought of coming to this church because from the outside it doesn't look like a church I wanted to visit. I first took an interest when my co-worker suggested that I go. Over the course of 3 years that I've worked with her, she would kindly suggest that I would have a visit. She was never pushy about it but always kept it as a seed that would grow within me. Finally, during the VBS activity that was hosted a couple of years ago, I made the time to attend with my kids. My initial thoughts when I walked through the door were: WOW! The work that the church members had put into this activity was really amazing. It was a superhero theme with decorations, costumes, activities and learning of course. We all were able to get to know a lot of the church members and everyone was very friendly and welcoming. We never felt at any point that we were new or awkward especially for our first family church experience. From that point on we tried to make more time into visiting early some Sunday mornings for at least praise and worship, as a start. Praise and worship here is very uplifting! The younger church members are so involved in everything that goes into the programs. They pretty much lead praise and worship with their beautiful voices. The words to the songs being sung are displayed on a projector screen, made it easy for us to learn the words and sing along. My children and I have felt so much at home with this church, at this past years "camp" my children begged to be a part of it for the weekend that it was held. Never in my life did I think MY children would beg to go to church! For 3 full days my kids attended the activities and even slept over one of those nights. Although there was lots of fun and games, I know they learned a lot from their time spent with the church. I am so grateful for the friends my children and I have made at Faith Assembly of God. I will definitely continue to try and make more time to attend church because of the great experiences we have here. The Parking is very limited so either find street parking or plan to be dropped off. Also, the street is often very crowded because the church is a Pokémon gym so tread with caution!

Calvary Chapel Central Oahu is a relatively small church that gathers in the heart of Mililani Town…read morefor worship services, perhaps a couple hundred families, all told. It's part of the Calvary Chapel family of over 1,600 churches worldwide. Sunday services are held weekly at 9:30a.m. inside the Mililani High School cafeteria. The building is nothing fancy, but this congregation of believers is friendly, genuine, and down to earth. Worshippers engage in simple but heartfelt music and prayer, while Pastor Rick Irons provides Bible teaching that is inspired yet easy to understand, delivered with gentle humor. You come away from services with a sense of having fed your soul. (As an aside, those familiar with surfing may remember that "Ricky" Irons was formerly a big wave phenom and board shaper as well as uncle to late surfing legend Andy Irons.) In addition to Sunday services, the church has activities for men, women, couples, and keiki that include mid-week small group Bible studies, Sunday School, spiritual retreats, and church social events. Church is "come as you are" and attire is casual (but tasteful). If you're looking for a welcoming church family, solid Bible teaching, and the opportunity for spiritual encounters with God that leave you satisfied, join us at CCCO!

It looked like all they did with him was play toys & blow bubbles outside. There was all of 3 kids. No snack, no craft. They never changed his diaper either. Songs? Lessons? As for the service, what a pathetic worship team! A guy playing ukulele & 3 girl "singers" that looked absolutely petrified to be on stage! Not even a guitar player, smh. The pastor spent alot of time trying to figure out how to project tiny pics from his phone onto the screen which you couldn't even see. He also seemed unprepared with his sermon, alot of redundancy. Alot of older people, a somewhat welcoming vibe but meh not really feeling it. I say these things not to be critical but to be constructive. If you offered snacks, had a better worship team, sunday school teachers were on time & prepared & sermon wasnt redundant, maybe you would attract more people.
