Aloha, Friends
The SPIRITUAL WELLNESS: INSPIRING HOPE Ministry will meet on Monday, November 24, 2025 at St. Joseph Church in Hilo in the lower meeting room at 6 pm.
Our topic for November is AGITATION. The Spiritual Wellness Ministry is a unique, spiritual approach to mental health in the Diocese of Honolulu developed under the sponsorship of Bishop Larry Silva. It is tailored to the cultural diversity in Hawaii. As far as is known, there is no other ministry like this addressing mental health through the Holy Spirit and based on Catholic teaching and spirituality. Come and sit with the Spiritual and Mental Health Ministry and walk with us through God’s scripture...experience His healing found in the Word and our Catholic faith. Please call Deacon Jim Dougherty at (808) 315-1319 for more information.
Blessings,
Deacon Jim Dougherty SOLT
