Prayer


Sixth Sunday After the Epiphany
O God, the strength of all who put their trust in you:
Mercifully accept our prayers; and because in our weakness
we can do nothing good without you, give us the help of your
grace, that in keeping your commandments we may please
you both in will and deed; through Jesus Christ our Lord,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God,
for ever and ever.  Amen.

Daughters of the King Quiet Day
DOK logo
The Order of the Daughters of the King is inviting all women in the Diocese of Hawai`i to a Quiet Day, on Saturday, March 25, 2017. 

This is a day for scripture-led reflection, prayer, and guidance for spiritual renewal. Finding the time to pray is hard in today's busy world. Sometimes it feels like we have to say the right thing, the right way, in the right place, and other things are more important, but that's not true. Let the Daughters lead you on a journey to find your "Secret Place" to recharge and connect with God. 

Quiet Day will be held at St. Anthony's Retreat Center, 3351 Kalihi Street, Honolulu.  The Rev. Ernesto Pasalo, Jr. (Fr. JaR) will join us at 9:15 AM for opening prayer, and to preside at the Eucharist. W e ask that everyone bring their own bag lunch. The day ends at 2:00 PM and each person will be given a memento to take home. 

Reserve your place at Quiet Day by calling Luella Windisch at (808) 685-1215, or e-mailing dok.hawaii@gmail.com. The deadline to register is March 15, or when space is filled. The cost is $10. Please make checks payable to the Episcopal Church in Hawai`i with DOK Quiet Day on the memo line, and mail to: Luella Windisch, 91-823 Launahele St., Ewa Beach, HI 96706. If you need transportation to or from the retreat or a place to stay on Oahu while attending the event, please tell Luella when you make your reservation.

Episcopal Church Executive Council Reaffirms Stand with Standing Rock

(Photo by John Floberg)

[Episcopal News Service - Linthicum Heights, Maryland] The Episcopal Church's  Executive Council during the last day of its February 5-8 meeting here reaffirmed its stand with the Standing Rock Sioux Nation.

Council members said the church pledges to "continue to support the action and leadership of the  Standing Rock Sioux Nation as the salt and light of the nation in its unwavering support of the sacredness of water, land, and other resources and reminding us all of the sacred calling to faithfulness."

They praised the Episcopal Church and its ecumenical partners in the water protection actions led by the Standing Rock Sioux Nation. The Rev. John Floberg, council member and priest-in-charge of Episcopal congregations on the North Dakota side of Standing Rock, drew council's specific praise, as did "the hundreds of Episcopal lay and clergy who responded to his call for support."

Council also endorsed the Standing Rock Sioux Nation's call for a  March 10, 2017, march on Washington, D.C. The resolution said the march was "for the purpose of proclaiming the continuing concern for our sacred waters and lands as well as challenging our government to fulfill all relevant treaty obligations of the United States to all federally recognized tribes."   READ MORE
