FROM THE BISHOP: FOLLOW-UP TO PASTORAL LETTER TO THE DIOCESE OF HAWAI'I
[January 24. 2026] My dear Siblings in Christ Jesus,
In light of events today in Minneapolis, I have asked that my Pastoral Letter of January 9, 2026, be shared with Diocese again. We again have seen another killing in the streets of that city that demands an independent investigation. We are seeing a rise in the use of force by poorly trained Federal immigration enforcement officers in masks that are heavily armed. Many religious leaders and members of congregations are taking part in nonviolent protests. READ FULL MESSAGE |
REGISTER TODAY! (Lunch options limited after February 13)
All are invited to attend the Diocese's annual Chrism Mass & Spring Training on Saturday, February 28, at The Cathedral of St. Andrew. For more information and to register, click HERE.

Prayer for Peace
In a time of war, fear, and violence, Disciples of Christ Jesus are called to gather, to pray, and to be witnesses of love in a world that has forgotten how to love. We cry for peace with justice. ~ Bishop Robert Fitzpatrick The Prayer
Eternal God, in whose perfect kingdom no sword is drawn but the sword of righteousness, no strength known but the strength of love: So mightily spread abroad your Spirit, that all peoples may be gathered under the banner of the Prince of Peace, as children of one Father; to whom be dominion and glory, now and for ever. Amen. Almighty God our heavenly Father, guide the nations of the world into the way of justice and truth, and establish among them that peace which is the fruit of righteousness, that they may become the kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen. |
Prayer for the Bishop Search
Throughout the duration of the bishop search process, the Search Committee urges the use of this prayer in all of our congregations as the concluding collect of the Prayers of the People, and to share in church news and websites. The Prayer
Gracious and loving God, we seek your provision as we search for the next bishop for the Diocese of Hawai'i. Help us recognize your divine plan and call a leader who will shepherd us along that path, a bishop who will embody and foster in us the wonders and excitement of discipleship. Grant us the wisdom to elect a bishop who will journey with us through challenging times and bring us ever closer to your eternal dream for humanity. Keep the Standing Committee, Search Committee and Transitions Committee focused on their mission, providing them with strength and determination to seek guidance from the Holy Spirit and to hear the voices of all the people of the Diocese. Finally, send your gracious Spirit to the members of the Convention of our Diocese who in faithful discernment will elect the next bishop. We ask all of this in the name of your Son, our loving Savior and ever-present Shepherd, Jesus Christ. Amen. |
