Parish Worship Schedule
We seek to provide powerful, joyful and Spirit-filled worship that is reverent, warm and inviting, with uplifting music and preaching that relates to today’s questions.
During the Covid-19 pandemic, the parish congregations of St. Columba’s, St. James’ and the Kawaihae Beach Mass have altered some of the locations and aspects of our worship: Only soloists sing the hymns, and congregational responses are said in one’s heart rather than spoken aloud. (Of course, if you're watching online, you're welcome to sing and speak as much as you like!) Masks and physical distancing are required at all in-person services.
Our current schedule:
Sundays:
8:00 AM Holy Eucharist* (with music) on the beach at Kawaihae Harbor, in front of the Kawaihae Canoe Club. Bring a beach chair or blanket. As a Covid-19 precaution, this service is on hiatus until Oct. 3, but online-only services will be streamed and also available for later viewing on our Facebook, YouTube and Livestream channels.
9:30 AM Holy Eucharist* (with music) at St. Columba’s Church in Pa’auilo. This service is streamed live and also available for later viewing on our Facebook, YouTube and Livestream channels. Until Oct. 4, we will gather for worship on the lawn outside of the church, as an additional precaution; bring a folding chair and an umbrella just in case.
10:00 AM Holy Eucharist* (with music) on the lanai of the Thrift Shop at St. James’ in Waimea. As a Covid-19 precaution, this service is on hiatus until Oct. 4.

*Eucharist comes from the Greek and means thanksgiving. It is central to our worship. It is also called Communion, Mass, the Lord’s Supper and the Divine Liturgy.
