Aloha Pacific District ‘Ohana!
This year, we are celebrating 100 years of God’s faithfulness throughout Foursquare! His Spirit continues to lead us in ways we could never have planned for. Just imagine, the past couple of years have brought us to such a significant place in our communities.
We also just finalized our Regional Gatherings on O’ahu, the Big Island, and Kaua’i…what an incredible time together of being on mission together. Your influence, presence, and heart for people, continue to bring hope to a world in need because you represent Jesus!
Many of you have already signed up for Foursquare Connection next month, and I’m sure there are some of you who haven’t gotten there yet. We are thankful to the many that are volunteering to serve at Foursquare Connection! If you register now, and volunteer for NexGen (just 6 hours), your registration will be taken care of. What a deal! It’s such a great way for us to say, “We want to invest in our future leaders!”
As we begin our second quarter of the year, we want to celebrate all the great things that God is doing in and through every single person and all of our churches. It’s all about His Kingdom! One last thing…if you have a camp coming up, let us know, we’d love to partner with you as we find ways to rebuild our youth and young adult camps. We all know that many great things come out of our youth and young adult camps…let do it together!
I am looking forward to this season as we continue to reach the islands, countries, and people groups with the Gospel of Jesus Christ as we abide with Him together!

Register now for Explicit Movement Youth + Parent Conferences!
Just a reminder to register for the upcoming Explicit Movement Conferences on May 12 + 13! We are running a Youth Conference and a Heart-to-Heart Parent Conference side by side at Leeward Community Church, Pearl City on Friday, May 12 (evening) and Saturday, May 13 (morning and afternoon). Spaces are limited so make sure you register soon!
Youth Conference
The youth are in for a truly mind-blowing, transformational experience! We are partnering with Onipa’a and their outstanding, impactful Heritage Keepers curriculum on:
- Godly sexuality and the powerful WHYs and practical HOWs behind saving sex for marriage.
- How to navigate the LGBT/gender issues that are currently bombarding youth in grace and truth…and more!
We have limited seating, so please register your youth today!
Heart to Heart Parent Conference
Parents are key influencers in their teen’s life. We know when empowered, parents can help protect their youth from damaging experiences and, instead, guide them to have thriving, healthy relationships in God’s timing and design. We will cover the following:
- How do I solidify a positive emotional connection with my teen so they seek to find love in all the right places and embrace God’s joyous design for sex?
- How can I talk about sex, relationships, and challenging sexuality topics confidently with my teen?
- Bonus session: An engaging, real-talk panel discussion on sex in marriage.
We have limited seating, so please register today!
