Non-Catholic Visitors- We Loved This Church !!!Hello:
The Tonga choir drew us to the service. The priest seems to care about the congregation, visitors and Hawaii/Pacific!! He salvaged an item of cultural significance that another church did not want anymore, he said.

We liked it until we found a nondenominational serviceAs frequent tourists to Waikiki, we used to attend mass here. This is a very pretty church next to the Waikiki Marriott. It is definitely worth a visit.

Memorable Easter Mass6am Easter Mass with the Priest wearing a Hawaiian Lei! The holy water Blessing was with an actual fresh picked palm. Even though I was on vacation, I felt I was at home in that church for Easter! It was inviting and another memorable part of our first time trip to the islands.5 of 5 Yahoo!

an architectural tribute to Polynesian CultureWhen one enters this magnificant church, one thinks he or she is entering a grand Polynesian Lodge House. The stained glass windows are truly awe inspiring as is the alter area. My wife and I attend the services regualr when visiting Waikiki.

If it's Sunday, you gotta go!This lovely Catholic Church is located within a short walking distance of the Waikiki beach hotels - about a 10 minute walk. Their Sunday services are what you'd expect - a typical parish service with plenty of local folks, lots of charm and bonus Hawaiian music from the choir. The Woman's Club has a little market outside, so be sure to ...7 of 7 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulSHOW FULL REVIEWOVERALLAtmosphereValue
