The 203rd ‘Aha Pae‘āina in 2025
“Therefore, everyone who hears these words of Mine, and acts on them, will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and yet it did not fall, for it had been founded on the rock. And everyone who hears these words of Mine, and does not act on them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. And the rain fell and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and it fell—and its collapse was great.” —Matthew 7:24-27

Youth Track: FULL! We are not accepting any more youth at this time.
This year, 30 youth from across our islands will be present at the ‘Aha. They will spend two nights at the Waineke Cabins before joining the wider Conference in Kapa‘a. While funds have been budgeted for this event and a modest registration fee has been collected from participants, inter-island travel makes additional financial support necessary.
If you would like to support youth at the ‘Aha and live into our fourth Strategic Initiative—ensuring that young people are "welcomed, inspired, and free to give full expression of their faith"—please consider making a donation of any amount! Learn more and DONATE HERE.
