Rich and Ellen Janevicius found a true sense of belonging when they joined St. Michael the Archangel Parish after retiring to Kailua-Kona, where they were warmly welcomed and inspired to reconnect with their Catholic faith. They became actively involved in several ministries—including Coffee and Donuts, the Food Bank, Hula Ministry, Charity Walk, Return Ministry, and the parish golf tournament—discovering meaningful ways to share their time and talents. Through their service, they have built lasting friendships, strengthened their faith, and experienced the joy of being part of a caring parish ʻohana. Their story encourages others to embrace stewardship and discover the many opportunities to serve and grow within the St. Michael's community. Meet Rich and Ellen: https://tinyurl.com/2dylely4

The table is long; there’s a place at the table for you.

O Mother of Perpetual Help, grant that I may ever invoke your powerful name, the protection of the living and the salvation of the dying. Purest Mary, let your name henceforth be ever on my lips. Delay not, Blessed Lady, to rescue me whenever I call on you. In my temptations, in my needs, I will never cease to call on you, ever repeating your sacred name, Mary, Mary. ⁣ #OurLady #PerpetualHelp

God our Father, In your wisdom and love you have created us and called us your own. Bless our fathers, that they may be strengthened as Christian fathers. Let the example of their faith and love shine forth. In moments of joy, rejoice with them. In times of struggle, give them your courage and perseverance. Grant that we, their sons and daughters, may honor and appreciate them always with a spirit of profound respect. May the example and prayer of St. Joseph inspire them to live their vocation with courage. Grant this through Christ our Lord. HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!

St. Paul
