Hawaii Fourth Degree Knights of Columbus Hawaii District, Fourth Degree Knights of Columbus Bishop James J. Sweeney arrived in Hawaii on Sept. 7, 1941. as a state in 1959. By Darlene J.M.

He was installed as bishop of the new Diocese of Honolulu in a liturgy at the Cathedral of Our Lady of Peace three days later. At the ceremony, a decree of the “erection of the diocese” was read before a congregation of thousands. Sept. 10, 1941, is the date that the Official Catholic Directory lists as the birth of our diocese. The Diocese of Honolulu was nearly three months old when the bombing of Pearl Harbor happened on Dec. 7, 1941. Establishment of the diocese predates by almost two decades Hawaii’s entrance into the U.S. At the time of Bishop Sweeney’s installation, the diocese had approximately 120,000 Catholics, 42 parishes, 55 mission churches, one seminary and 19 Catholic schools. Today, Catholics comprise about 20 percent of the roughly 1.3 million people in Hawaii. There are now 66 parishes, 27 mission churches and 36 Catholic schools in the diocese. Chinese, Hispanic, Korean, Samoan, Micronesian and Vietnamese ministries represent Hawaii’s multiethnic faithful. Parishes across the diocese also celebrate Masses in Hawaiian, Filipino dialects, Latin and other languages. Dela Cruz

I kept my baby, even though I was sixteen, even though I didn’t know how I would,

I kept my baby, even when everyone told me “kids shouldn’t have kids” or that I’d “ruin my life”,

I kept my baby.
I knew some would think I slept around, that I was promiscuous.

I knew that girls would talk and boys would listen, but I still kept my baby.

I knew there was a pill that could ‘take it all away’. “My ‘problems’ could be gone tomorrow if I just took it today.” But I knew that was a lie anyway, so I kept my baby.

And because I kept my baby, it’s assumed I hate everyone who made a different choice. I don’t. I love them.

And I know how scared they were because I was, too. I know how these girls (and myself) were misinformed when we were told it’s impossible.

It’s not.

I knew it would take a lot of trust and big faith when I kept my baby. But when I did, this crazy thing happened.

It didn’t even ruin my life. Not in any way.

Now I have a baby and a family.

I have a baby and a college degree.

I have a husband and even more babies.

I’ve raised a baby and still chased my own dreams.

So yes, I’ve done some things the hard way, and I’ve grown up faster than I *had* to, and I’ve struggled along the way, but when I look at my sweet “baby” boy,
I’m so glad that

I kept my baby.
