Kalaiakamanu Hou Congregational Church - where faith takes flight like the carved bird its name honors. This spiritual home has welcomed generations of worshippers under its white steeple, standing steadfast as both an anchor of Hawaiian Christianity and a living testament to Molokai's enduring faith traditions. Over 150 years old, today’s families bring new life to its pews - the same walls that once sheltered Queen Lili‘uokalani during her historic visit now embracing modern celebrations of baptism, wedding and ho‘ike. More than a building, it represents the unbroken ‘ohana of believers who have gathered here since the first missionaries carved its likeness from the island’s devotion, ensuring the protective spirit still watches over this congregation.
