The Scope of Ohana's Small Groups

At Ohana, we believe that we need all kinds of groups to meet all kinds of needs. The small groups of Ohana must fall under one of the M's of our purpose statement.

Hula Ministry

"Let them praise His name with dancing...." Psalm 149:3a

The purpose of Ohana's Hula Ministry is to spread and communicate God's Word through music and dance. Dancing Hula is a way of worshipping God and giving glory to God. The Hula Ministry's dream and vision is to have committed dancers grow spiritually so they become fruitful believers. The Hula Ministry is a great tool to minister to unbelievers, as well as believers. 

Ohana's Purpose

"The purpose of Ohana Christian Fellowship is to bring people to Jesus and Membership in His family, develop them to Christlike Maturity, and equip them for their Ministry in the church and their life Mission in the world in order to Magnify God's name,"

Aloha Ministry

Reaching Seekers, Building Believers, Growing Families

Aloha Ministries provides Hospital visitations, Home visits, Community Services, Bereavement Services, Celebrates Births, Birthdays, and Graduations, and we also provide meals.

"And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God. To those who are called according to His purpose. For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His son..."Romans 8:28-29

The ultimate destination we want people to arrive at is to be conformed to the image of Jesus Christ.   We desire that people continue to move toward a growing relationship with Jesus Christ and they are transformed into the image of Him.
