Early Settlers in Hawaii, m em bers of the C hurch of England, inspired K ing K am eham eha IV and his Queen Emma with the message of Christ. I t was this teaching th a t moved these two beloved m onarchs to work until the Church of England sent a Bishop to H awaii in 1862 to establish th e Anglican Church. K ing K am eham eha translated the Book of Common P rayer in his native language for his people. In 1902 the American Episcopal C hurch assumed jurisd ic tion of our C hurch’s w ork in Hawaii. Today we serve 6 parishes, 28 missions, 10 unorganized missions, 9692 baptized persons, and 6062 com municants.

Where Our Work Is . . .As lovely as the lei, expressing love of friend for

friend th rough “A loha,” o r as rom antic as the beautiful in terpretation of H aw aiian chants by “Lovely H ula H ands” is the trad ition of the early history of our Church that has woven itself into our progress.

All w ork in the C hurch in Haw aii has its beginning from the Island of Oahu. Significant is the nam ing of this im portant island of the T errito ry— “ G athering Place” — for here, the true “Threshold of the Pacific,” are found Honolulu, the principal po rt and capital city of the T errito ry , St. Andrew’s Cathedral, the home of our Bishop, and over 275,000 people of our diverse races— H aw aiian, Caucasian, F ilipino, Chinese, Japanese, K orean

H is visits take him to M olokai, known as the “ F riendly Is le ;” K auai, the “ Garden Is le ;” M aui, the “Valley Is le ;” and Hawaii, the “ Big Isle” or Volcano Island. Though the Church has no established w ork on the Island of Lanai, the Bishop does visit th is Island for baptism s, etc.

THE MELTING POT .Our country has long been called “ the ‘ melting pot

of the w orld.” This title was won by opening our gates to the flood of im m igrants from the European countries. But H awaii is in a unique sense the melting pot of the Pacific, for here, in these H aw aiian Islands we have thousands of people of all races, living, it is true, in remarkable harm ony, but needing the teaching df the

Gospel to unite them into an understanding unity. These people from Japan, from China, from K orea, from Sam oa all have in tim ate contact with the ir hom e countries (this contact, of course, was greatly increased by the thousands from these islands in the arm y in Japan, etc.) iSb tha t if there can be established a firm belief in one God and F ather of us all and in the necessity of our dwelling together in love and charity , because we are in fact one fam ily of God’s creation, the message of hope and unity will travel fa r from these islands, and be a trem endous force throughout the East. This calls for a great effort, a renewed dedication, an ardent faith. I t is a solemn challenge to us in this day.
