Daily Lectionary Readings
“For since the creation of the world, his invisible things are clearly seen. They are perceived through created things, even his everlasting power and divinity.”
When our Lord was calling His first disciples, they asked Jesus where He was staying, “Come and see” (John 1:39) was the Master's reply, and that is our reply to the whole world. Come and see!
The Maui mission parish seeks to spread the good news of God's love to all. We are committed to placing Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, first and foremost in our lives. We are firmly rooted in the teaching of Holy Scripture and the unchanging Christian witness of the early church.
We are a Christian mission parish on the island of Maui. We are a community following a traditional expression of Christian faith and worship as practiced over millennia by the one, holy, catholic, and apostolic church. Maui is a unique location for a mission parish as it is at the nexus of visiting Christians and people of good will from all around the world. Maui is also a unique place for a mission parish because the communities of people that make this Island their home, as residents of Hawaii, are dedicated to a life filled with the aloha spirit.
We seek to grow in holiness through lives of repentance, forgiveness, mercy, compassion and faithful prayer.
Service Schedule
Currently, we celebrate and worship the Lord with bi-weekly prayer services (either Vespers or Matins and Typika services) and with an Eucharistic Divine Liturgy service twice a month, usually the second and fourth Saturdays. Whether you live on the Island of Maui or are just visiting the Island for a short time, whether you are already a Christian or just someone who is seeking to experience the original practice of the early Christian church in paradise, we welcome you to join us and participate in our celebrations.
Immediately following our services, we host an Aloha fellowship hour for the purpose of fostering community within our parish and welcoming visitors. So, if you attend a service, please feel free to join us afterwards for aloha hour and bring a dish to share with the mission parish.

Wisdom's Invitation
Wisdom built her house,
And she supported it with seven pillars.
She offered her sacrifices;
She mixed her wine in a bowl
And prepared her table.
She sent her servants,
Inviting people to the bowl with a lofty proclamation, saying,
“He who is without discernment,
Let him turn aside to me;”
And to those in need of discernment, she says,
“Come, eat my bread
And drink the wine I mixed for you;
Forsake lack of discernment, and you shall live;
Seek discernment so you may live,
And keep straight your understanding with knowledge.”
