Liberty Church International is a vibrant community of faith where people of all ethnicities and ages come together to worship and serve God. There's a contagious expectancy that God is doing something miraculous in each of our lives. And we have confidence in the power of the Gospel to transform, heal, free, and abundantly bless the lives of men and women everywhere who give themselves to Jesus Christ. We dress comfortably and our worship is enthusiastic.
Each Sunday we sing Tasi Le Loto. The last line of the song says: “Na te faia i tatou uma ina ia tasi” (to make us united as one). Our Love of God and our following of Jesus leads us to embrace love for our neighbors by caring for the poor, Pacific Peoples, and the earth. We are a multicultural, multi-ethnic, LGBTQIA+ supporting congregation. Sunday Worship 10am
About St. JamesWe are diverse community of friends and neighbors, old and young, long-term members and newcomers. Our present and future is based on our own efforts to work together for our neighbors, welcoming and accepting all people. Many of us have come to St. James' as tourists or nomads and by welcoming St. James' into our hearts, are now pilgrims, sharing our gifts and talents to make the love of God and Jesus Christ known to any seeking them.Certainly, not all of us were raised in the Episcopal tradition. We have, however, found a home in St. James', a place where all are welcome to share in God's grace. We are able to find a niche here, and contribute our gifts as we are willing and able. Our many ministries speak to the varied display of members: children and elders, cooks and gardeners and knitters, caregivers and helpers, listeners and speakers, lifelong students and teachers and searchers. We have found that all of us have gifts to share; participating in the life of this parish helps us to discern what those gifts might be, and how to put them to the best use God has intended.In 2006, St. James' undertook a visioning process, to see where we've come from, who we are, and where we are going. We took a long lens and examined our blessings, our traditions, our dreams. At the time, we did not know what form our "vision" would take, a statement, an image, perhaps a story or poem? After months of discussion, reflection, and vision, we were led to what might be described as serendipitous: a prayer. The Prayer for St. James' is the result of this community of people coming together, deciding who and what they are and what they want to be, and it uniquely describes St. James' Episcopal Church today:

Hope Lutheran is a congregation of believers in the one, holy, catholic and apostolic church and confesses the apostolic faith, confessed by the Evangelical Lutheran Church, drawn solely from the Holy Scriptures. We are a member church of the English District of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod. Formed in 1974, Hope, with her pastor, endeavors to serve all with the Gospel message of the forgiveness of sins in the suffering and death of Jesus Christ and the certain hope of everlasting life through faith in Christ. The sole mission of our church is to proclaim this message of forgiveness, life and salvation in Christ that comes to us through the Ministry of preaching the Holy Gospel and the administration of the Holy Sacraments. The Divine Services we use are the sacramental and liturgical rites of the Lutheran church which are the historic rites of the catholic church since the time of the Apostles. Our services are marked with the awe, reverence and dignity that is due our Holy God. You will find that we aspire to worship that is beautiful, traditional, inspiring and yet that is relevant to you today. The Sunday Divine Service is held at 8:30 am (Mandarin) and 10:30 am on Sundays. We celebrate the Holy Sacrament of the Lord's Supper in every one of our Divine Services as we recognize that our Lord Jesus Christ comes to us through this blessed meal of his body and blood which is the heart and life of the church.
