Salt + Light `Ohana,
He is risen! He is risen indeed!
After Jesus was crucified, the disciples were locked themselves in a room, in fear that they would be next! There are times in our lives where we give into fear, or give up believing God is at work in our lives. The disciples and “Doubting Thomas” are examples of what happens when we give in and give up.
This Sunday, join us online at 9 am as we look at what happens “When The Risen Jesus Walks Into The Room.” He is alive! And when you meet Him you will never be the same!
In the peace and joy of Jesus,
Pastor Max
Want some good conversation over a hot or cold drink?
Join us at our new online hangout...
1 Can?...YES, 1 Can!!
The Veterans Administration cares for its veterans in many ways. However, having enough food for the veterans is always a special need.
Currently, 100 veterans are transitioning into housing from the streets. Outreach social workers go out into the community to provide food and services to 20 “non-sheltered” (homeless) veterans.
Although many of our Salt and Light ʻohana have less resources than previously, we are hopeful to collect 1 can from each family.
Our combined collection of cans and packaged food will be a significant offering of love to our veterans.
Donations may be dropped off at Pastor Max’s house:
625 E. Kunawai Lane
Honolulu, HI 96817
OR call May at (808) 387-4372 for more information and/or pickup.
Please join the effort to be Salt and Light to our hungry veterans in need! Deadline is Thursday, APRIL 30, 2020.
Participation is optional, but if you like art (or trying at it!) this can be a fun project for individuals and families!
WHAT and why? HOPE ROCKS S+L project seeks to bless others with hope in Jesus during these uncertain times of the coronavirus pandemic. Through painting small rocks and leaving them on your exercise walks around the community, people will find them and be blessed--sort of like an Easter Egg hunt (ok, we've just missed Easter!) The finder will also be able to post their rock on social media (more on that below). Painted Rock communities have been growing in popularity in various areas on the mainland (if interested, google "painted rocks of hope").
HOW will ours be different? Not only will this bring smiles and fun, but our finders will be blessed. First, we ask that you PRAY for the finder in advance. In faith, we trust God has that perfect person who needs a blessing! Second, so that the finder may actually learn about S+L, we ask that our special social media project page be included on the back of each rock: Hope Rocks S+L. This can be done in small writing or by placing a sticker (which can be provided if you don't have any).
On our social media group pages (on Facebook "Hope Rocks S+L" or Instagram "hoperocks_sl") is where you may post your pics of the rocks you paint. Our hope is that finders will post photos of the rocks they have found from us (it's done like this elsewhere and we think enough people know about it). Please pray that we will connect, make new friends and be able share the light of Jesus!
WHERE: While it would be preferred to place these rocks around the Waikiki School community (Kapiolani Park, Diamond Head area), we understand if you would prefer to stay closer to your home.
WHAT IS NEEDED:
Any kind of rock that can be painted (smooth river rock works best and can be provided)
Paint pens or colored sharpies (best for small river rocks)
Paint
Small paint brushes
