| Prayer for Jonathan Myrick Daniels
|
| O God of justice and compassion, you put down the
proud and mighty from their place, and lift up the poor and the
afflicted: we give you thanks for your faithful witness Jonathan Myrick
Daniels, who, in the midst of injustice and violence, risked and gave
his life for another; and we pray that we, following his example, may
make no peace with oppression; through Jesus Christ the just one, who
lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and
ever. Amen. - from the feast day for Jonathan Myrick Daniels, seminarian and witness for civil rights (d. 1965), August 14..

| Vision for Our Diocese |
|
|
Vision: All Episcopalians in Hawai`i shall work together to create a Church filled with visible and spirit-driven Christians - Christians who are eager to share our Episcopal tradition and faith, and traditional Hawaiian spiritual values, with those who have not yet found a spiritual anchor in their lives.
Goals:
1) Convert our Hearts to Accept Jesus' Gospel Message and to Live in a Deep Relationship with God. 2) Transform the Episcopal Church in Hawai`i and Congregations to Vital and Vibrant Faith Communities. 3) Evangelize to Share God's Love in Our Communities. 4) Reduce the structure and administration costs of the Diocese so that its operations, including its bodies, are directed to supporting transformation and growth.
The Five Marks of Mission of the Worldwide Anglican Communion: 1) To proclaim the Good News of the Kingdom 2) To teach, baptize and nurture new believers 3) To respond to human need by loving service 4) To seek to transform unjust structures of society 5) To strive to safeguard the integrity of creation and sustain and renew the life of the earth
