The Tradition of Giving Continues at Holy Nativity Thrift Shop
Growing out of a series of rummage sales the Holy Nativity Thrift Shop started in 1963 and has been raising much needed funds for various charities though its many years of operation. Our volunteers work hard and see the happy results in the faces of satisfied customers who return week after week. For Holy Nativity Church and the general public, it is an outlet for their used but still good clothing, household goods, furniture and other extra belongings. At Holy Nativity Thrift Shop everyone not only gives but they receive.
On January 31, 2019 the tradition of giving continued with a donation of $4,400.00 from the Thrift Shop's Fall Festival which was given to Residential Youth Services & Empowerment (RYSE). The mission of this organization is to provide an access center where Hawaii's street-youth have a safe haven and are empowered to make positive change. RYSE collaborates with the community to provide food, shelter, medical care, education, employment assistance, and counseling in a nurturing, non-judgmental environment.
Hawaii has the largest per capita percentage of homelessness in the U.S. Over 1 in 5 homeless are youth or young adults. In Hawaii, 18-24 years old are one of the fastest growing homeless populations and require unique housing and social service support. They are still developing as young adults and require adolescent-specific services. Hawaii lacks sufficient facilities that address their needs. RYSE was born to provide this type of support and service. For more information please visit the RYSE website:
https://rysehawaii.org/
Almighty and most merciful God, we remember before you
all poor and neglected persons whom it would be easy for us
to forget: the homeless and the destitute, the old and the sick,
and all who have none to care for them. Help us to heal those
who are broken in body or spirit, and to turn their sorrow
into joy. Grant this, Father, for the love of your Son, who for
our sake became poor, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. The Book of Common Prayer

Rectors Search Survey
At our annual meeting last Sunday, members of the parish had an opportunity to provide feedback to the Holy Nativity Search Committee about qualities they would like to see in the new rector. To afford an opportunity to participate for those members who were unable to attend annual meeting, the survey will be available on the lanai. The surveys will be also available at the church office during the week. The anonymous survey will take about 10 minutes to complete. Please return the survey to the church office or to Bob Steele Chair of the Search Committee by February 17

A Message from the Holy Nativity School and Church Mission Possible Group
The Holy Nativity School is an important and cherished mission of the Church of the Holy Nativity. The school is a corporation owned by the parish and the land and buildings they share are held in trust for the Episcopal Diocese of Hawaii. The church and school share many expenses including maintenance, insurance and utilities. The school is supported by tuition payments, fundraising and gifts; it has a small endowment. The church is supported by its congregation's giving, rental income from external parties and from endowments; it also operates a thrift shop. The church and school have agreed upon which indoor and outdoor spaces are designated for each-- either in their entirety or as scheduled.
The Church of the Holy Nativity worships God, encourages spiritual growth and shares God's bounty through outreach. Holy Nativity School values each child's individuality and seeks to develop principled citizens. Our Episcopal identity is found in our traditional worship, religious study, community life and pursuit of justice.
Our school's Board has fiduciary responsibility to our church. The board hires the Head of School with prior concurrence by the parish's Rector. The Head of School develops and implements policies and programs, hires staff and faculty, answers to the school's board, reports regularly about the school's progress to the Vestry and maintains a collegial relationship with the Rector. The church's Vestry calls the parish Rector, appoints school board members (nominated by a committee with church and school members), meets semi-annually with the school board and monitor's the school's well-being. In 2018-19 our school will begin to contribute to the capital improvements of the shared property. The school and the parish appoint members of a Capital Improvement Committee which prioritizes and manages needed improvements as approved by the Vestry and the Diocese.
