|
During the week of July 10-14, 2023, 6 members of WCCC partnered with Hawaii Pacific University's (HPU) Student Nurses' Association (SNA) to provide care to the community of Kaunakakai, Moloka'i. These members included: Mark Yamamoto (deacon, mission trip lead), Ku'ulei Yamamoto (registered nurse, previous HPU SNA medical mission lead and HPU alumni), Ten Mendoza Jocson (youth leader), Raychel Menor (future pre-nursing student), Chereen Menor (future pre-nursing student), and Angel Ramos (future pre-nursing student). Alongside these 6 members, they were joined by Dr. Joy Bliss (professor at HPU's nursing school and HPU SNA advisor), Jennifer Huerta Bandy (nursing student at HPU, SNA medical mission lead, and cosmetologist), and Jennifer's husband, Justin Bandy. Throughout the week, they provided: free physical assessments, free haircuts (courtesy of Jennifer), free yard clean up, and a free car wash. Please see below for some highlights from our trip.

Next Gen Youth Rally August 2023
On August 12, 2023, our church hosted the first ever Next Gen Youth Rally (sponsored by Oahu Baptist Network). Youth from several churches (WCCC, Mililani Fil-Am, and Word of Truth) attended. We sang worship songs, played games, learned about the woman from Samaria (message by Michael Abagon), ate some great food, and made new friends. We are striving to have this youth rally quarterly and we look forward to the next one! Please see below for a recap video of the highlights of this event.
