Plus they serve a full hot breakfast ( eggs, rice, sausage etc)in the dining area . They had greeters at the door and packets for new members. They also had programs for kids and small groups. The service consists of singing ( with band), bible reading /teaching and a sermon. I glad I found this church and it will be my church when I visit Hawaii.

The church is surrounded by the most beautiful scenery!!!

We believe that school can be an important part of a child's life. We provide an environment that allows children the freedom to explore their world through play.

My husband's family is from Oahu, and we currently live in Oregon, so coordinating from afar could have been challenging, but working with the parish and their front office made everything smooth and simple. The ceremony was beautiful, and Kepa was incredibly accommodating with the music. The homily was heartfelt, and we felt so welcomed despite my husband's family not being Catholic. It was an intimate, unifying experience, and we're forever thankful for the church's generosity in allowing us to get married there. We couldn't have asked for a better setting for such an important day. Thank you, St. Anthony of Padua Church, for making our ceremony so special!

I've gone pass it hundreds of times. it's right by my office. I just didn't know how it looked like. in my eyes I was looking for a cupolas (domes with rounded or pointed roofs). I was suprised to see the world renounded myrrh streaming icons in a humble two story building just out side of downtown honolulu, kakaako-the industrial part of town. instead of cupolas on the roof, there's a "massage place" upstairs! how's that? I guess if the oils from the icons don't heal you, you can opt to go upstairs and have someone try and massage the hurt out from you :D so... to make a long winded story short, I was able to get the myrrh from the icons, got a bottle of myrrh oil blessed, and ami commemorated. hopefully now ami will get better.

This church is a rare commodity these days. The pastor really knows his stuff. He is a true…read morestudent of the Bible and teaches in a manner which is both engaging and convicting at the same time. Children are a major priority: They stay in church for worship time, then Pastor Perry has them go on stage for a children's sermon which mirrors what he intends to teach to the adults. They are then off to Sunday School to be taught about God's love for them. One thing that struck me on the first time I attended and since is that the pastor knows each child by name. The church also has a very active AWANA club and has an annual "Vacation Bible School" during the Summer. The youth group is a solid bunch of kids who are truly seeking the Lord's face through the assistance of the youth pastor, Pete Keizer. They meet once a week for in-depth study of the Bible as well as games and worship. They serve the community with food distribution to the needy people of Nanakuli as well as serving at the River of Life homeless shelter downtown. The music ministry is phenomenal, and the Worship Pastor, Josh Nordgren, continually encourages the musicians to improve in their musicianship and to grow in their faith. He plays a mix of modern praise songs with at least one very familiar hymn thrown in to the mix. The people in this church exemplify what is meant by "Christ Follower". They show love toward one another as well as to strangers. They spontaneously pray for one other when the need arises. They have active community outreach programs and sponsor missionaries from the church all over the world. They even created a in-house sponsorship program much like "Compassion International" to support AIDS orphans at an orphanage in Uganda. Their motto is "A family for You", and I have found that that is the perfect motto for this church. Give them a try.
