FAITH ACTION MESSAGE
As was shared before the Christmas holidays, steering committee members from the units of Faith Action have recommended that action be taken to seriously consider if/how the organization can continue.  A date and time has now been set to deal with this question.
“Treasuring the Past, Reimagining the Future” will meet on Saturday, February 18, from 10 AM to 1 PM at Calvary by the Sea Lutheran Church (5339 Kalaniana’ole Highway).  All are welcome to join us on this journey. If you want to attend, call Marian Heidel, and we will set up a carpool.
