KAMEHAMEHA SCHOOL DEPUTATION TEAM
Four juniors from Kamehameha School will be assisting in worship this Sunday, October 23, by providing music and stories. They will be accompanied by Kahu Kordell Kekoa. The deputation team program began in the late 1940’s when Chaplain Rev. Stephen L. Desha, Jr. observed that many Hawaiian churches of the Protestant Congregational denomination were without pastors. He felt that Kamehameha Schools could extend its educational services and be sending students to churches that requested assistance. The program continues to grow throughout Hawaii with 75 students this year, as students visit and assist churches. Let us welcome the Kamehameha School students and share our aloha with children and youth this Sunday!
KAHU’S SERMONS ON VIDEO Thanks to generous donors, we are continuing to record on video Kahu’s sermons each Sunday. We encourage you to share these videos with your friends and neighbors in order to encourage them to attend Koloa Union Church. For this week’s sermon, click HERE.
CHRISTMAS OUTREACH “Spare Change to Help Needy Families” We plan to give gift cards to families in our community before Christmas so that they can have food and gifts for their children. Can you bring your spare change to church between now and December 11? Just place it in the Spare Change Jar as you enter or leave the church. We will add up our change on December 11 and purchase gift cards for local stores. If you know any families we can help, have any questions, or wish to volunteer, please contact Judyth Foley at 818-726-1344.
CHOIR PRACTICE: The choir rehearses on Thursday evenings at 7 p.m. Please come, and bring a friend.
ANNUAL SPRING RUMMAGE SALE: Saturday, April 22, 2017, 8 a.m. – noon. We are accepting your rummage sale donations at the church.
