Have you ever been in a fun house with a hallway full of warped mirrors? Isn't it fun to walk through it and notice that each warped mirror distorts the reflection looking back at you? Now because we live in a fallen world, did you know that every single person, whether we like it or not, has a warped mirror in the back of their minds? And if we're not careful, these warped mirrors can tend to distort our reality to how we see God, how we see ourselves, and how we see others. But what's amazing about our God, is that His design and desire for you and I is to journey with Him through every phase of life, as He shares with us of who He really is, and who He has truly called us to be. This weekend, we are excited to begin 2023 with a brand-new sermon series entitled, SIT-WALK-STAND: EPHESIANS, where we will be journeying with God, through Paul's letter, to the church of Ephesus. In our SIT-WALK-STAND series, we will explore each chapter as well as vital themes that God, through Paul, wants us to grasp about what God has done, who we truly are in Christ, and how we can live out our faith boldly and practically in our everyday lives.

This week, we welcome back to our church Pastor Dale Saito, who just returned from a pilgrimage to Israel. He will share a little about the experience and a message inspired by their visit to ancient Jericho.

It's like that familiar phrase we hear all the time while we’re on a Zoom call, when someone gets asked to share, and you see their lips moving but we don't actually hear any words being said. And that’s when we use the phrase, “You’re on mute!" And so, this weekend, Pastor Jared will be unpacking from Acts 4 as we look at the importance of unmuting and sharing our faith in Jesus with those around us.

Over 30 years and counting... OUR HISTORY HUMBLE BEGINNINGS Like most good things, our church began in a humble way. Now going on 33 years strong, we look back and thank God for blessing us in so many ways, for the people we now call family, and for allowing us to continue to shine His light in our precious community. In 1988, a group of high school students attending a Bible study in Mililani decided to start a church in the community. They called themselves "Hope Central Mililani," and asked Pastor Jeff MacKay, the youth pastor at Hope Chapel Kaneohe at the time, to be their pastor. ​ In October of that same year, they began holding services on Sunday evenings in the cafeteria at Kipapa Elementary School. The church rapidly grew from its original thirty members and after only three weeks, a Sunday morning service was added to accommodate the surge in attendance. The church location changed a few times over the coming years, and its congregation grew and flourished. ​ In 1998, God moved Pastor Jeff’s heart to plant a new church in Osaka, Japan. It was a bittersweet moment saying goodbye to their founding pastor but the church looked forward to a new season of change and growth. ​ In 2003, Pastor Tim Greseth was inspired to create a new beginning for the church. With a vision of reaching beyond the community of Mililani, the church celebrated its 15th Anniversary and re-grand opening as "Hope Chapel Mililani." ​ From humble beginnings, God has blessed and grown our church. This year marks our 32nd anniversary of shining God's light in Mililani and beyond.

Making Disciples of All Nations MISSIONS TEAM MISSIONS: LOVING OUR NEIGHBORS Our Missions teams have the privilege of taking the life-transforming message of Jesus Christ outside our beautiful island. We believe that all should have the opportunity to experience “life to the full” that Jesus spoke of and to spend eternity with God. We endeavor to accomplish this through partnering with dynamic, Christ-centered, ministry leaders and indigenous Pastors. As part of this mission we seek to engage our people in the great commission through sending short-term mission teams to support our partners. Those who go on missions always find themselves blessed with an amazing lifetime experience as well. We currently conduct regular missions outreach to the Los Angeles Dream Center, Osaka Japan, and Hope Chapel Jagna in Jagna, Bohol, Philippines.
