Daughter's of the King Chapter is Installed at All Saints'
 Mana'olana, which means "hope" in Hawaiian, is the name of the newly installed All Saints' chapter of The Order of the Daughter's of the King (DOK). The ceremony took place during the 9:30 service this past Sunday, March 1, with members being blessed and welcomed by Shauna Jones, a board member of the diocesan DOK and chair of the St. Nicholas Chapter on O'ahu.
Linda Crocker, who has been a member of the DOK on the mainland, introduced All Saints' members to the Order during the Ministry Fair on Homecoming Sunday, and is this chapter's president. "We're about prayer and service," said Linda, and welcomes all interested women to inquire and join the group. They plan to meet regularly about twice a month.
There are currently four other chapters in the Diocese of Hawai'i, and the All Saints' Chapter makes it five. The national DOK mission is "... the extension of Christ's Kingdom through Prayer, Service and Evangelism." To learn more about DOK, visit the Diocesan website HERE, and also the national organization's website HERE.
Pictured above are the members of Mana'olana, (L-R) Robyn Putman, who is the Secretary & Treasurer, Fr. Ryan, President Linda Crocker, Diocesan Representative Shauna Jones, Mabel Antonio and Jan Hashizume.

Going Green!
Vendor Registration Is Open

Luminarias on Sale After Sunday Services!

Third Sunday of Lent
Almighty God, you know that we have no power in ourselves to help ourselves: Keep us both outwardly in our bodies and
inwardly in our souls, that we may be defended from all
adversities which may happen to the body, and from all evil thoughts which may assault and hurt the soul; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Book of Common Prayer, p 218
