My family and I live in an RV in the lower 48 states, and have traveled across the country for the last 2 years. We decided to fly all to the islands of Hawaii for the month of May. As such, we have been to many, many different churches, but there has never been one that I enjoyed as much as Waikiki Beach.

With the rate our country is going, it was so nice to worship and hear God’s Word with other believers while so many non-believers walked by. We’re praying that those people see our peace and confidence in our identity, and will seek His...
Read moreEveryone is free to worship, total respect for that, setting up right in front of a hotel and playing the same 5 beats on a drum for a 2 hour loop at 8am on Sunday is not cool. People are sleeping, this is a family hotel with a ton of little ones that just got off long flights. Two of your workers were bragging about how many people were getting woken up and coming out to see what was going on so we know you’re doing it on purpose. Not how you...
