We,
the people of God of St. Rita Parish in Nanakuli, are united in
our belief and in our commitment to Jesus Christ. In the spirit
of Aloha, we respond to Christ’s mission of love and freedom
with our care, concern and communal action. This is expressed in
the stewardship of our treasure through tithing and in the gift
of our time and talents through shared ministries.
As
a fast growing rural parish with a large Hawaiian population, we
feel a special calling to stand together in truth and justice for
the rights of the first people (kanaka maoli) of this land. As part
of the universal Church, our outreach extends beyond our boundaries
to the global community and we affirm the human dignity of all peoples.
As
a parish family, we enthusiastically participate in brining about
God’s reign of peace. We continue to evangelize, welcome,
and invite all of God’s people to St. Rita Parish.
