Statement of Faith

Kumulani Chapel has been formed as a fellowship of believers in the Lordship of Jesus Christ. We are a non-denominational church and seek to work harmoniously with all those who in truth call upon the name of the Lord, Jesus Christ.

We Believe

JESUS CHRIST is the foundation and cornerstone of the church. He came to restore our broken relationship with God. His finished work on the cross made that possible. Because of His love demonstrated on the cross by dying for our sins, we now have reason to fellowship with one another and proclaim salvation through His life, death and resurrection. (1 Cor. 3:11, Eph. 2:20, Rom. 5:6-10)

THE BIBLE is the inspired, infallible word of God and is relevant and applicable for us today. Therefore: we place great emphasis upon teaching it in public, studying it in private, and using it as a guide for our daily lives. (1 Tim. 4:13, 2 Tim. 3:16, 17, 1 Thess. 2:13)

WORSHIP We believe God is worthy of all praise, reverence and love. We take special time to worship Him in church through song. It is our goal to worship Him with our whole lives as well; at home, at work and at play. (John 4:23, Col. 3:16, 1 Thess. 5:16-18)

CHRISTIAN GROWTH Our supreme desire is to know Christ and to be conformed into His image by the power of the Holy Spirit. We encourage this by abiding in Jesus Christ through His word, prayer, and fellowship and by yielding our lives to the Holy Spirit. (John 15:5, Rom. 8:29, Eph. 4:15)

LOVE is the greatest virtue and demonstration of the reality of Jesus Christ. We endeavor to show a Christ-like love to all people. Love should be exhibited in our lives by our words as well as our actions. (John 13:34, 35, 1 Cor. 13:13, Phil. 2:3-5)

CHRISTIAN SERVICE is part of the Christian life and is the responsibility of all believers. Our goal is to develop the ministry of every member to the benefit of all. (Eph. 4:11-13, 1 Cor. 12:4-7)

Our Staff

But Ricky promised he would never stay beyond his time.
