HOLY INNOCENTS EPISCOPAL CHURCH
Lahaina, Maui, Hawai'i 

On Tuesday, August 8, 2023, wildfires ravaged the island of Maui, tearing through Lahaina town, and leaving death and destruction in its wake.  Holy Innocents Episcopal Church's buildings were one of hundreds of structures that succumbed to the fire. Officials continue to assess the damage while navigating a toxic environment. We ask for your continued prayers and support for the people of Maui and all those affected, who are suffering and grieving deeply. The journey forward will be long and difficult.

MAUI STRONG: A COMMUNITY COMES TOGETHER ON THE ONE-YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF THE DEADLY WILDFIRES
​[Chronicle, August 22, 2024]  ​On Thursday, August 8, 2024, hundreds gathered at Hanaka’ō'ō Beach Park on West Maui, for a paddle-out to commemorate the lives lost in the horrific wildfires that took place a year ago, but it was also to recognize the resilience of those who survived, and a community that is determined to literally "rise up from the ashes." The paddle-out was the first of several events that took place through the weekend, and concluded with an interfaith service on Sunday at the Lahaina Civic Center. Each event brought together a community that has endured unimaginable suffering, but are finding strength and hope in the support of thousands who continue to reach out, pray, and provide assistance to those affected.

CEMETEREY / COLUMBARIUM UPDATE & STATUS REQUESTS:
​We have had many inquiries about the state of Holy Innocents' Cemetery/Columbarium. From our visits so far, all niches seem to be intact, complete with their informational plaques. Damage to the columbarium is significant, but mostly this involved the roof, marble facing, and the central sculpture. The debris makes it difficult to approach every part of the structure, and access to the site is still somewhat limited. If you have a question about a specific burial/inurnment, please use the form HERE, and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
