On Sunday, March 22nd, we will be celebrating Rev. Shiro Sokabe, the founding minister of Honomū Congregational Church (now Hilo Coast UCC). This year our theme is “For such a time as this,” honoring the time of Rev. Sokabe’s arrival and the impact he made on the Japanese community living on the sugar plantation. Please bring any memorabilia, clothing items, books, or other items representing this historical time to put on display for others to view. In addition, we will be having a special guest and presentation during the worship service. And as part of the celebration, the Women's Fellowship will be serving lunch afterwards. Please join us on this very special occasion!
