SMALL GROUPS AT GOOD SHEPHERD
Christian fellowship is so much more than a Sunday service!
At Good Shepherd Church we encourage everyone to be part of a small group. It is in these gatherings that real spiritual growth takes place as we encourage one another to live in the grace of Jesus.
Ho'ola Groups
We believe that we all need to be connected to each other beyond Sunday, where only brief "hi's" and "bye's" can be exchanged. In additions to Sunday morning, we get together during the week in homes as "Ho'ola Groups" so that we can fellowship with each other and apply the Bible to real-life issues.
Ho'ola groups meet all over the island from Waianae to Hawaii Kai, from Kailua to Town; and include singles, couples, seniors, and families. There is a Ho'ola group just right for you!
What's "Ho'ola?"
Ho'ola is a Hawaiian term that means to save, to nurture, to bring wholeness, to give life, and to revive. The term ho'ola accurately describes the ministry of Jesus who came to seek and to save the lost. Luke 19:10. We are under construction, a work in progress as the Lord restores us to the wholeness He originally intended (for more, go to The Christian Faith and Our Core Values). The Lord works out this construction process within a loving, transparent community of people who love and serve one another. That's what a ho'ola group is all about, people growing and being built up through the grace of God and the love of the group so that each is equipped to love God and serve others by bringing God's grace and wholeness to them. You don't have to worry about not having it all together, since none of us have it all together. . . . yet. On this side of heaven, we are a work in progress, but when the Lord takes us home to Him, we will be made complete.
Ho'ola groups meet regularly and include singles, couples, seniors, and families. There is a Ho'ola group just right for you!

HUI GROUPS
Anyone associated with Good Shepherd Church may start a small group that engages people both inside and outside of church. These groups typically gather around a common interest and are sort of a "club" or "Hui".
Some typical Huis would include sports teams, book clubs, service teams, sewing groups, etc.
