Our Story
In 2010, a number of people had come from Hawaii to Louisville for theological training. Shortly after arriving, they began meeting to pray for Hawaii and its churches. For 8 years, this group continued meeting monthly for “Hawaii Prayer Night.”
It was through the seeds planted in prayer at “Hawaii Prayer Night” that the burden and vision for Waiehu Community Church grew.
Our Partners
We are a part of the Immanuel Network (https://www.immanuelnetwork.org), a network of pastors and churches committed to helping plant and cultivate healthy churches for a global harvest. Kahului Baptist Church (https://www.kahuluibaptist.com) on Maui, Kailua Baptist Church (https://www.kailuabaptist.org) in Kailua, HI, and Immanuel Baptist Church (https://immanuelky.org) in Louisville, KY are all a part of the Immanuel Network and served as our sending churches.
We continue to cultivate faithful partnerships across Hawaii, the continental US, and internationally —- these include the Maui County Baptist Association, the Hawaii Pacific Baptist Convention (https://www.hpbaptist.net), and the Southern Baptist Convention (https://www.sbc.net).
On January 27, 2019, 20 core team members covenanted together as the founding members of Waiehu Community Church. Our first service was held on February 3, 2019.
