Ultimately God made us to bond with Him. Our hormones were meant to fire when we worship, when we love, when care for others. We were supposed to be “addicted” to God.

The ancient Hawaiians only had an oral tradition, so the first missionaries had to create a written language then teach the ancient Hawaiians how to read and write their own language. It is a truly remarkable achievement of this first team of missionaries to Hawaii!
Key to this endeavor was Elisha Loomis who just happened to bring on board with him an old printing press. This led to a 75% literacy rate second only to Scotland.

The story of Jesus coming to Hawaii begins in New Haven, Connecticut, where a young Hawaiian man named Henry Opukahaia became an on-fire follower of Christ.
