JOIN OUR TEACHING SERIES:
WOMEN IN THE BIBLE
|
|
Facitiltated by the Reverand Paige Hanks every Thursday at 10:30 am, please join us in our Christian Education journey as we learn about Women in the Bible. There is much misinformation about the characters we will study, as well as how gender is understood in the ancient church that connects to how it plays out in today’s modern church. Through our time of study, we will encounter new revelation as we explore our own internal gender biases from our unique contexts. This course will meet each Thursday, at 10:30am via Zoom.

Helen Mitsui Shared Blessings Thrift Shop in Kilauea is seeking Volunteers for 2021.
Each volunteer shift is a 2-4 hour commitment for a minimum of one day per week. Experience in Retail, Customer Service, and/or Retail a plus, but not required.
Volunteers are invaluable to serving our community. Our goal is to reuse, repurpose and recycle goods — keeping as much as possible out of landfill — while providing our community with access to reasonably priced, quality merchandise.
Here are ways you can help:
* Greeters welcome shoppers and monitor our COVID guidelines.
* Customer Care helps shoppers to ensure a pleasant shopping experience.
* Merchandisers organize departments, restock the floor and display retail goods.
* Philanthropy distributes merchandise to organizations in need.
* Donation Intakers receive, sort and process donations.
Work-from-Home volunteers help prepare merchandise for sale. We are especially looking for help in these areas:
* Games: checking games to ensure all components are intact
* Stationery: packaging up cards and envelopes
* Holidays: preparing merchandise for Christmas, Halloween, Easter, Valentines, 4th of July, and more
* School, Office, Art Craft Supplies: organizing and packaging materials for reuse
* Toys: sorting, cleaning, and packaging toys
* Hardware: sorting and packaging tools, materials, electronics and appliances
Requirements?
*Team players with a genuine interest in serving the community and contributing to the reuse movement.
* Willingness to support COVID-19 safety measures set by Shared Blessings
* Physically able to lift 50 pounds (Merchandisers and Donation Intakers only)
Benefits?
Serving the community and our environment is rewarding work. We have a lot of fun! New merchandise is donated daily, so the element of surprise and wonder is constant. Get a first peek and more!
Interested?

HUI MALAMA MAKANALUA PRESENTS:
KALAUPAPA WEBINAR SERIES
|
|
Aloha! Formed in early 2014, Hui Mālama Makanalua began as group of friends, students, and teachers; neighbors and 'ohana; who all share a connection to the wahi pana of Makanalua peninsula (commonly known as the Kalaupapa peninsula). Our mission is to honor and perpetuate the multiple layers of mo‘olelo of Makanalua, Molokai -- environmental, cultural, social, political, and all.
Each June, through Lei Hali‘a O Kalaupapa, our Hui honors and remembers those kūpuna who once resided on the peninsula -- the kama‘āina (original residents of the peninsula), the patients (those who were "quarantined" on the peninsula because of Hansen's disease or leprosy from 1866-1969), and the mea kōkua (or helpers) to those patients. We normally do this by placing lei on every known burial site -- on JUNE 30th of each year -- the anniversary of the ending of the isolation policy (June 30, 1969).
This year, due to CoVid, our efforts will once again constitute a virtual event--featuring a 5-part webinar series of presentations and activities throughout the month of June. Register online to participate...

A BRIEF HISTORY OF KALAUPAPA |
|
Few places in the world better illustrate the human capacity for endurance or for charity than the remote Kalaupapa Peninsula on the island of Molokai.

Our giving is important, especially now.
Although we aren’t gathering in the sanctuary for worship, our church bills are still the same. We’ve had questions from our Sunday worshippers and now our Zoom worshippers about how to give. Your continued gifts really matter, especially in this time of uncertainty.
