OUTREACH IS WHO WE ARE •
SERVE Day is almost here!
Outreach is the heartbeat of the church, and SERVE Day is one of our favorite days of the year to show it! We’ve got projects scheduled all around the island and we can’t wait to get to love our city alongside you.
On SERVE Day, instead of meeting for our usual Sunday services on July 16th, our worship is serving our island through over a dozen different simultaneous serve projects like feeding the homeless in Kapolei, Waianae and Wiamanalo, free drink giveaways, and helping our schools by painting, yard cleanup & planting for the new school year.
You can view and sign up for SERVE Day Projects HERE.
Check out this map of where our SERVE Day projects will be located…
And another thing: Please be praying for SERVE Day. One of the keys to successful Out Reach is going there in prayer before you go there in person!

Small Groups in the Spotlight
We believe that building healthy relationships is the key to growing into a fully-formed disciple of Jesus Christ. The truth is, relationships can be complicated. It can be easier to avoid your season than to grow in it. The good news is that we were created to thrive in life-giving relationships! Whether your relationship status is single, married, engaged, or in need of healing, we encourage you to get connected to a small group that can breathe life into your relationships.
We want to highlight 4 of our amazing small groups that are available to equip you to thrive in the relationship season you find yourself in. Each group can help you: build healthy relationships, develop joy and contentment, and surround you with a community of people who are in the same season as you:
Meets weekly on Wednesdays from 6-7:30 pm
Hope and Healing After Infidelity
Saturdays from 7:30 am to 8:30 am (First meeting 6/17/23)
Fridays 6-7:30 pm
Military & Veteran Monthly Meetups
4th or 5th Saturdays
Summer Message Series
People are the Point! Not church attendance, not adhering to a list of do’s and don’ts. It’s all about God working in and through people. Revelation tells us the power our stories hold: “And they have defeated him by the blood of the Lamb and by their testimony,” (Revelation 12:11 NLT). In our summer message series, we’ll hear from a variety of people about how God has moved in their lives. Get ready to see God at work in powerful ways and to learn how much of an impact your own story has on the people around you!

Our MannaYouth Rallies are just for you, and we’ve got one coming up on July 21. We also have a RETREAT planned for August 18-19. You won’t want to miss it! You can find out more HERE.
