Empowered by the Holy Spirit, Kailua Christian Church strives to be a loving and nurturing family of faith committed to a growing relationship with God, one another, and the world through teaching, service and witness as embodied by Jesus Christ.
Kailua Christian Church (United Church of Christ) has a 49-year history of witness and service to the Windward community. The church was born in response to a tragedy within the community and the desire to reach out and minister in an ongoing way to people on this side of the island, inviting them into Christian faith and fellowship. Kailua Christian Church began as a predominantly Japanese-American congregation, though now, the rich ethnic diversity present in the members, reflects our understanding of the nature of the Kingdom of God. Current membership is 195 members.
KCC has always been a mission's church and takes its outreach to the community in both service and monetary offering very seriously. Being a church family that recognizes we have received much from God, we respond by giving much to address the needs of our own members and the world as a whole.
We serve a gracious God in the following areas of ministry:
