👍👍 CUC is a large, historic, very well known and welcoming church. Events throughout the year such as Christmas Eve candlelight, food distribution during Covid-19 pandemic, and drive-thru Xmas manger. A couple of the prayer cards I have found inspiring: "Dear Lord We pray for your love and compassion... People often mention church,

    CUC is a large, historic, very well known and welcoming church. Events throughout the year such as Christmas Eve candlelight, food distribution during Covid-19 pandemic, and drive-thru Xmas manger. A couple of the prayer cards I have found inspiring: "Dear Lord We pray for your love and compassion as we walk through our challenges this week. We ask for wisdom in our choices. We pray for those who need comforting and protection. Help us approach our days in faith and peace, trusting in your goodness. Amen." "Loving Father, Thank you for your love and forgiveness, Thank you for another day for us to show love to others and to spread joy. Thank you for the breath in my lungs and another day to experience your loving kindness. Amen"

    Christmas worship was very good. However, after the service, I greeted Pastor Ryeo and was surprised to have a nose ring on her nose. The Old Testament law does not have to follow, but wearing a nose ring does not seem pure.

    The church itself is beautiful, with amazing architecture. It seems a nice venue for smaller services/events, but not for larger groups.

    Central Union Church (CUC) is a community of faith that recognizes you as a whole person - they treasure and embrace all. CUC has a very long history in Honolulu, but it is modern and forward thinking as it seeks new ways to discover, share and practice love for all as Jesus taught. The members we have met come from many places, many traditions, and have many stories. If you live in Hawai’i, or if your travels bring you here, give the people at CUC the opportunity to say, “E komo mai!” Because it has been our experience that no matter who you are, or where you are on your life’s journey, you are welcome.

    Was looking for a new church home after moving to Honolulu. I visited at least 10 churches before settling on Central Union. The ministers there reflect the spirit and heart of Jesus. They are true to their mission to engage and embrace all, while seeking to embody Christ. If you are looking for a place you will be accepted and loved and a place to grow spiritually, I highly recommend giving Central Union a try. They have services on Sunday at 7:00 / 9:00 / 11:00

    Beautiful church and amazing awesome campus. Security here is on point and the history of Central Union Church goes way back to our forefathers and foundation of Hawaii. Thank you administration for running and maintaining a great campus.

    This is a very traditional church in Hawaii that is elegant, close to Waikiki, and makes brides look absolutely beautiful, and I have been there for many couples. Both the garden and the church look great for photos, and the solemn atmosphere is also great.

    Good church, not too far from Waikiki

    Beautiful Church. We were there for an organ concert. Acoustics were great for the organ, they had also positioned the organ so you could see the organist playing.

    I visited their thrift store on a Weds. (Note: traffic was extremely difficult in circular drive because needy families come through drive through for food) Head volunteer Lynn was very helpful. The store was organized & decorated beautifully. Parking was tight but probably sufficient on normal day.

    Says it’s open but it’s locked up even during hours they say they’re open. Gorgeous church, buildings, grounds.

    I attended a food drive sponsored by the church with foodbank. They were very organized. Everything ran smoothly. Praise God!

    Hosted the choir convention our kids attended and we're very welcoming. Clean spaces. Plenty of room for all the choirs that attended. Great sound. Looking forward to any other events that might be held here in the future
