SUMMARY:Evening Lenten Book Study: Inspired
DESCRIPTION:Lenten Book Study: Inspired: Slaying Giants\, Walking on Water and Loving the Bible Again by Rachel Held Evans\n\n\nThis Lent\, we invite you to step into a thoughtful\, engaging\, and hope-filled journey through Scripture as we explore Rachel Held Evans’ beloved book Inspired. In this four‑week study\, we’ll look at how the stories of the Bible continue to shape\, challenge\, and encourage us today—especially as we walk through a season meant for reflection\, renewal\, and deeper faith. \n\n\nTogether\, we’ll consider how ancient narratives speak into our modern questions\, doubts\, joys\, fears\, and experiences. Evans’ writing offers both comfort and a gentle push toward curiosity\, helping us rediscover the Bible not as a book to be mastered\, but as a living\, breathing source of wisdom that invites us into conversation with God. \n\n\nOver our four weeks together\, we’ll… \n\nexplore fresh and transformative ways of engaging Scripture\,\nshare meaningful conversations in community\,\ndeepen our spiritual practices during Lent\, and\nsupport one another as we reflect on where God is moving in our lives.\n\n\n\nWhether you’ve read the Bible your whole life or you’re just beginning to approach it with new eyes\, this group offers a welcoming space for honesty\, exploration\, and growth. All are invited—bring your questions\, your stories\, and your openness to discovering something new. \n\n\nBooks will be available for purchase ($10)  from Pastor Rushan or through the Church Office. If you’d like us to reserve a copy for you\, just let us know! \n\n\nWe will meet in the Rewick Board Room on Tuesday evenings (February 24\, March 3\, 10 and 17) 6 PM – 7:30 PM and Thursday mornings (February 19 and 26\, March 12 and 19) 10:30 AM – 12 PM. \nCome when you can to either the morning OR evening session each week! \nCLICK TO SIGN UP!

SUMMARY:Community Vigil for Peace
DESCRIPTION:THIS EVENT IS BEING POSTPONED.\nDue to the severe weather being experienced and expected across the island\, we have decided to postpone our community vigil out of an abundance of caution and desire for our communities to safely access and participate in the gathering.\nMarking the Deaths of Those Killed in Gaza\nThis interfaith service will center around a speaking of the names of children killed in Gaza\, interspersed with prayers and readings by representatives of various faith traditions. Children make up a large percentage of the death toll in Gaza which surpassed 75\,000 a year ago and is rising still\, even after a ceasefire was declared last October. While focusing on Gaza\, there will also be wider calls for peace and justice in the world. \nWe are called to “Weep with those who weep” (Romans 12:15). \nAll people of conscience are welcome. \nPlease join us in solidarity on Saturday\, March 14\, from 3-6 PM in the Sanctuary or online. Come and leave as you need. \nIf you are coming in person and willing to help speak aloud some of the names (to be read from a provided list)\, there may be an opportunity to participate in this way. \nMay our grief be transformed into collective action for peace and justice.\nOrganized by Faith Action for Community Equity\, Central Union Church\, Hawai‘i Quaker Friends Committee on National Legislation. \nContact: kristen-young@centralunionchurch.org \nNOTE: Severe weather is expected across the islands over the next few days. Heavy rain\, possible flash flooding\, strong winds\, and thunderstorms are on the forecast through the weekend. We will monitor the storm and make the call to continue or cancel/reschedule the vigil on Saturday morning. Please stay safe. \n

SUMMARY:Easter Eggstravaganza
DESCRIPTION:Bring your keiki for a quick and fun Easter Eggstravaganza! \n\n\n\n\nJoin our Children’s Ministry for their annual Easter Eggstravaganza following the 9 AM worship service (and preceding the 11 AM worship service) on Easter Sunday\, April 5. \nIt’s a quick and fun activity to let your keiki experience some Easter joy. \nIt’s BYOB—keiki are invited to bring a basket and collect as many eggs as they want. The eggs will be empty (like the tomb on Easter morning) but they can turn in their eggs in exchange for a goody bag! \nEach egg collected will represent a monetary donation. This year\, the donation will go toward local recovery and relief efforts following the floods that devastated many communities in Hawai‘i. This project will continue throughout the Easter season until Pentecost.

SUMMARY:11 AM Contemporary Worship Service
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our contemporary worship service in the Parish Hall! \nSermon series: The Gospel According to Broadway \nGodspell: The Gospel in Community\nThis spring we invite you to experience the good news in a fresh way through
 The Gospel According to Broadway: 
The Musicals of Stephen Schwartz. Drawing on beloved Broadway shows\, this series explores how faith\, grace\, justice\, and purpose are revealed through modern storytelling and song. \nRooted in the United Church of Christ’s belief that God is Still Speaking\, this series echoes Pastor John Robinson’s reminder to the Pilgrims that “the Lord hath more truth and light yet to break forth from his holy Word.” We listen for God’s voice not only in Scripture\, but also in the culture and stories that surround us today. \nJoin us as we discover how God continues to speak—on the stage\, in community\, and in our lives.

Their performances balance power and precision with warmth and musical storytelling\, creating concerts that resonate with both longtime choral enthusiasts and first-time listeners. \nThe ensemble is conducted by Dr. Brent Wells\, Associate Professor of Choral Conducting and Ensembles at Brigham Young University. Dr. Wells directs both the BYU Men’s Chorus and Concert Choir and is widely respected for his musical leadership\, scholarship\, and artistry. His academic work focuses on hymnody and folksong\, and his compositions and arrangements are performed by choirs internationally. As a conductor and performer\, he is known for shaping performances that are both technically refined and deeply expressive. \nUnder Dr. Wells’s direction\, the BYU Men’s Chorus continues its legacy of excellence while connecting audiences to the enduring power of the human voice. This Hawaii tour performance offers a rare opportunity to experience one of America’s most iconic men’s choral ensembles in an evening of stirring\, joyful\, and inspiring music. \n  \nBUY TICKETS\nPromo code: BYUFAM \n\n\n  \nCentral Union Church is just the venue\, not a sponsor of this event.
