Ministry Description |
Kaumakapili, located in urban Honolulu provides an opportunity for a pastor with the passion to challenge himself/ herself and the church to whom God is calling us to be. We are looking for a spiritual leader who, covered with the full armor of God, will be bold and passionate in teaching and doing the word of God. Applicants should be comfortable working and living in the multi-ethnic society of Hawaii and be open to embracing the Hawaiian culture that is an integral part of our church life. A senior deacon proficient in the Hawaiian language and culture provides support as a cultural advisor for the pastor and the church. During the liminal season, a Tuesday morning Women’s Bible study and a Thursday night Bible study are being held via Zoom with approximately 12 to 15 people in attendance for each session. Our Outreach ministry is transforming the food pantry to a social supermarket that opened in August 2022. We have the usual problems of urban churches (crime, poverty, homelessness) and of most UCC churches (aging congregation, few children for Sunday school). But, guided by the Holy spirit, the leaders and members of the church have faith that God will provide a kahu (pastor) whose passion is to serve God in word and deed. Three areas of church life have been identified as goals the minister would co-collaborate with the congregation: 1) Spiritual Life, 2) Building the Body of Christ, and 3) Program Development. |
