Gratitude and Appreciation!We have had some fabulous guests during the past two weeks. On Sunday, April 10th, Jami Lula joined us for a powerful musical treat. As a singer, song writer and recording artist who appears all over the country, Jami delivered his gifts and took us on a heart-opening, inspirational journey. We are so grateful that Jami has answered the call of his heart.
Also, this past Sunday, April 17th, Oceanna O Manna Lani offered a Kahuna wisdom blessing chant as part of our Sunday service which was facilitated by Rev. Marilyn Miller. Oceanna has been trained in the lineage of Kahuna Abraham Kawaii, through Wayne Kealohi Powell and Iolani Negrin. She is currently studying the Wise Secrets of Aloha with Kahuna Harry Uhane Jim. The congregation enjoyed participating with her as she led this chant with breath and sound.
