The Lutheran Church of Honolulu currently offers two morning worship services. On the first and third Sundays of each month, we have Evening Prayer at 7:30 PM. During the summer months (June 2 to August 25, 2013), LCH has one Sunday morning worship at 9:15 AM. This service uses elements from both morning worship styles. All worship services take place in the Nave. Holy Communion—Sunday mornings at 8:00 AM (9:15 AM beginning June 2, 2013)
The ensemble of singers and instrumentalists—guitar, flute, violin, french horn, steel drums, and piano—lead us to sing our hopes and beliefs. Our pastor teaches us about God’s love as revealed in the Bible, both in a special children’s conversation and in the adult sermon.
Children are welcome to remain in worship, and nursery care is provided from 7:45 AM until noon. Christian education for all ages follows this worship service at 9:20. Take a “virtual tour” of this worship service in the 8:00 Holy Communion Slideshow. We hope you will join us for worship. Choral Eucharist—Sunday mornings at 10:30 AM (9:15 AM beginning June 2, 2013)
Our pastor opens up the Biblical message of God’s love for both children and adults.
Children are welcome to remain in worship, and nursery care is provided from 7:45 AM until noon. Nursery care is provided from 7:45 AM until noon, and Christian education is available for all ages, beginning at 9:20. Take a “virtual tour” of this worship service in the 10:30 Choral Eucharist Slideshow. We look for you to share this time of worship with us. Evening Prayer—First and third Sunday evenings at 7:30 PM
On the third Sunday, Evening Prayer is preceded by “Exploring Boundaries...and Beyond,” an exploration of ideas and values at the boundaries where our faith meets the rest of the world. The presenters come from LCH, the universities, and the wider community. The presentations begin at 6:00 PM in Isenberg Hall and end at 7:15, in plenty of time for Evening Prayer. More information and a schedule of presentations is available on the Exploring Boundaries...and Beyond page. Please note that in some months a major worship event may replace Evening Prayer. On those evenings, service will still be at 7:30 but may be a Vespers service with the LCH Choir or an event like Advent Procession.

Evening Prayer services are quiet, meditative services held twice monthly on the first and third Sundays. The Evening Prayer liturgy is simple with emphasis on Word, reflection, and music. The services are lay-led and do not include communion. Instead, the liturgy includes elements commonly found in the traditional evening services such as Vespers, Compline, and Evensong.
