There may be service opportunities to support the Lāhainā community. Community groups are in the process of organizing. As you can imagine, this is a dynamic and ever-changing situation. Waiola Church was the original “service” location, however, due to the fire, that may be unavailable. Lāhuiokalani-Ka’anapali Congregational Church in Honokowai is a possible location if Waiola Church is not available. Will be able to get better prices/locations in 2024.
