In a demonstration of unity and support for the Lahaina community, the Hawaiʻi Catholic Community Foundation and Maria Lanakila Church announce the upcoming Spiritual and Wellness Health Fair on Saturday, May 18, 2024, at the Royal Lahaina Resort’s Aliʻi Ballroom from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Sacred Hearts School announced Principal Tonata Lolesio is the recipient of the coveted 2024 National Catholic Educational Association (NCEA) Lead, Learn and Proclaim Award.
More than 200 community members joined with faith leaders from 13 Lahaina churches to offer prayers during a gathering Thursday in observance of the six-month mark after the Lahaina fire.
While 2023 had its fair share of challenges and struggles, it was also a year of revival and hope. In the good times and bad, followers of Christ leaned on their faith, leading to some pretty remarkable news stories that are worth remembering.
It was important for Principal Tonata Lolesio to reopen Sacred Hearts School in Lahaina only a few weeks after the Aug. 8 wildfire that decimated the town.
“We have come today to lament with you, to mourn with you, and to grieve with you,” Bishop Silva said in his homily, standing next to rows of flickering candles; each representing a loved one lost in the devastating Lahaina wildfire on Aug. 8.
Honolulu Bishop Larry Silva will celebrate Mass at Sacred Hearts Mission Church in Kapalua on Maui at 6 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 2, 2023. This solemn All Souls Day Mass will be an opportunity for parishioners of Lahaina’s Maria Lanakila Catholic Church to receive spiritual solace.
Priests and deacons from across the Honolulu Diocese have been heading to west Maui to provide spiritual support for the victims of the Lahaina wildfires.
