St. Joseph Mission in Kaupo, Maui, celebrated its first Mass of 2018 on April 29. After a rainy winter that had brought many road closures, prayers for good weather were answered. St. Joseph is the most remote mission of the already distant St. Mary Church in Hana. The music for the Mass was provided by the Honors Choir of Sacred Hearts School, the parish school of Maria Lanakila Church in Lahaina, under the directorship of Lori Ulman. Pictured is the choir with pastor Father Arwin Rebollido, left, and Ulman, far right. Mass is celebrated on the fifth Sunday of the month, whenever that occurs, typically four times a year.* (Photo courtesy of Marvy Marciel Gibbs )
