My Journey to Kalaupapa and Kalawao

What an amazing day. So much beauty on Molokai! Going to Kalaupapa is by far one of the best experience of my life!

Waimano Trail with Kekoa and the gang!

A Friday morning,,, in the Rain Forest :)

Last Friday a group of us from OLGC took a nice hike through the Waimano trail up to the pavilion. Its been a while since we have done a hile so it took us a few minutes to get back into the 'survivor man' mindset ;) Be on the lookout for more hikes being scheduled soon!

Homeless Ministry tonight :)

We have Homeless Ministry this evening. We will leave OLGC at 5:45pm on the dot :)

There will be no Lords Day Celebration this evening so please come to Homeless if you can!

We have TONS of donations to bring so help is much appreciated!

Questions about sins of the flesh . . .

As of late I have been getting quite a few inquiries involving various sins of the flesh. I usually field such questions with the template that the two-fold purpose of the sexual act is to

1)Be procreative (Not that every act must result in life but must at least be OPEN to life and

2) Be unitive wherein the man and wife become one, renewing their covenantal bond

The end must be these things not pleasure in and of itself.

This shows the intrinsic wrong in homosexual acts, in contraception, and a slew of other sexual immoralities as they are not 'open to life' nor are they unitive within the context of matrimony. They also have pleasure as its direct end.
