Aloha from Kauai

by Elizabeth Braaten | June 30, 2024 2:13 AM

The team has arrived and we could not be more thrilled! After settling in at Kuaui Baptist Church we went to the beach, had dinner together, and went to bed to get some rest before church tomorrow. 

Aloha from Kauai

Mission Meals!

Everyone has been gifted with different ways to serve. Tonight our very own Pastor Brandon blessed our team with a black stone grill and a delicious dinner! This grill will serve the church and our missions teams for years to come.

You Belong at Kauai Baptist Church

by Jennifer Wernimont | June 30, 2024 2:07 PM

Today we had the privilege of helping to set up for Sunday service at Kauai Baptist. If you’re looking for a church to attend while on the island, Pastor Nathan would love to have you in his congregation!

Faith in Famine

by Elizabeth Braaten | June 30, 2024 6:08 PM

Service today was spent at Kauai Baptist Church. Some of us served with the children’s ministry while the rest listened to Pastor Nathan’s sermon about how we must remain focused on faith when we go to where God calls us.

This afternoon Kauai Baptist Church youth group invited us to go on their weekly excursion to Lumaha’i Beach where we jumped off rocks, swam, and played volleyball together!

Let’s Build

This morning Church on MasterRoad was beyond generous in their time and supplies to build a shower for future teams and community. In addition they built well a Gaga Pit and Air Square court for the youth group.

Garden of Kauai

This morning we were able to work at a member of the congregation's home. We worked outside of her house weeding, mowing, weedeating, painting, power washing, and cleaning!

Chasing Waterfalls

by Elizabeth Braaten | July 3, 2024 3:49 AM

This afternoon we ventured out to Waimea Canyon and hiked up and down to swim in the waterfall! It was a hard, but rewarding hike that helped us work as a team and encourage one another!

Mornings Together

by Jennifer Wernimont | July 3, 2024 12:18 PM

Every morning we walk from our church to get coffee together and talk about the hard work we put in the day before. These kids are a blessing to one another.

Future Fruit

by Elizabeth Braaten | July 4, 2024 3:00 AM

This morning we were able to serve at St.Paul Episcopal where we helped prepare their tomato garden. This garden will provide even more support to their youth. What a blessing it was to meet them, serve with them and support their ministry which will go on to produce much fruit (physically and spiritually).

Food, Volleys, and Fellowship

by Elizabeth Braaten | July 4, 2024 3:41 AM

This evening we joined Kauai Baptist Church for a taco meal, volleyball game, and a message from their guest pastor about things a pastor wished his congregation knew. It was great connecting again with the church family and we can’t wait to see all that God does here.

Last Night

by Elizabeth Braaten | July 4, 2024 3:48 AM

An end of the night at the beach led to praying for and supporting a local fire dancer by our youth. It is so amazing seeing their heart to serve and love others!

Chasing MORE Waterfalls

by Elizabeth Braaten | July 5, 2024 2:41 AM

Before our flights home we went out to Wailua Falls. To get to the waterfalls we either kayaked or paddle boarded and then hiked to the falls. Once we got there we were able to swim in the nice cold water. What a fun way to spend our last afternoon on the island. 

Pictured here is a snippet of our beautiful hike.

The Last Supper

by Elizabeth Braaten | July 5, 2024 2:43 AM

Our last dinner together was one of comfort. We enjoyed a nice McDonald’s meal together before saying our goodbyes. Journey On Church on MastersRoad! 

Mahalo! Until we meet again!
