TEAM OUTREACH
Team Outreach meets on Sunday mornings 7:45 am in the parish hall courtyard to make PBJ sandwiches for the weekly
A Cup of Cold Water Runs.
www.holyimaui.org/a-cup-of-cold-water.html
Come join US!!!
It is funded through Change for the Soul – which is where parishioners adopt a Purple HIPPO and return it monthly filled with loose change or cash.
All of the Change for the Soul collected is used for purchasing bread and filler for sandwiches.
This ministry has been well received by the recipients. Joy fills the hearts and minds not just their stomachs. All are invited to come be part of our Team Outreach Ohana.

Aloha all,
Holy Innocents is continuing to do our best to adapt to the changes in our lives and community. The Bishop’s Committee is hard at work brainstorming possible ways to re-begin our corporate worship when it is considered safe to do so and when given the go-ahead by the state of Hawaii, the county of Maui and the approval of the Bishop Fitzpatrick. We will thoughtfully and prayerfully and slowly begin when the time is right. We need to be a safe place for our members and for our visitors when they return. Meanwhile, as a church community that is mainly composed of high risk people, we continue to encourage everyone to please stay at home as much as possible and follow all the social distancing and hygiene guidelines. Please check out Rev Heather Mueller’s sermons on our website—we are so blessed that she is doing them for us—as well as Rev John Tomoso’s Zoom services—and Bishop Fitzpatrick’s regular talks on the Diocesan website.
Since most of our congregation is basically at risk and should be staying home, the Bishop’s Committee readily agreed to support the West Maui Food Distribution effort of the Lahaina Baptist Church. On Thursday mornings, the line of cars along the side of Hono’api’ilani Highway, lined up for food, has been heartbreaking. To that end, Holy I recently donated $1,000.00 from our HIPPO Thank Offering Account to be used for food for Lahaina families. Thank you to all of you who have thankfully donated to that account each Sunday. We will do more if need be. And thank you to all who are joyfully and prayerfully maintaining their pledges and going above and beyond. Mahalo, mahalo, mahalo.
Please keep in touch, whether it be by email, phone, texting or whatever. And let’s keep supporting each other—and the world —in prayer.
Much aloha,
Diane Delos Reyes, Bishop’s Warden
And the entire Bishop’s Committee
