“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.”
“Yes, I was there but not for church you know I didn't ever know it was a church , for I thought, after visiting their once, it was a rich piece of history embedded deep in the hearts and souls throughout the Hawaiian Islands. I went their to i basket of food.”
“Grew up going to this church. Holds a special place in my heart! It’s a lot nicer now after renovations!My grandma and grandpa have loved the priests here! They’ve been a parish member for over 30 years! We love you guys (:”

1560 S Beretania St., Honolulu“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.”
“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.”
“The Kawaiahao Church was the very first Christian church to be built in these Hawaiian islands. The church members naturally stand up for and champion many local Hawaiian issues.This magnificent church ediface is primarily built with local ocean coral blocks. It once was and still is an awe inspiring structure.The last remaining ruling queen, Queen Lilioukalani, a strong, devoted Christian and her family attended church here.”
“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.”
