Baby Matthias was baptized this past Sunday (3/13/2016) at Blessed Sacrament Church in Pauoa. Mahalo to Fr. Richard McNally, ss.cc.for doing the baptism
The sacrament of Baptism makes us part of the mystical body of Christ (CCC 1272), cleanses us from original sin through the regeneration by water (CCC 1213), and is necessary for Salvation (CCC 1257) For a biblical look at the Sacrament of Baptism CLICK HERE

Fishing Fridays at the Alii Agriculture Farm
This year we began a new family tradition of visiting the Ali'i Agricultural Farm in Wahiawa each Friday during Lent to catch dinner! The farm has three well maintained ponds filled with farmed catfish, tilapia, and grass carp. It cost $15 to rent a bamboo pole which includes all the bait you will need. At the end of the day you simply pay the fair market value of fish you want to keep. Thats it!
It has been a wonderful way to teach the children how to catch and prep fish. It has also been an awesome and unique tradition to add to our family practice during lent
Look the farm up on Yelp for more information.
