Join us in celebrating the 16th Anniversary of St. Damien of Molokai Parish!

The festivities will start after the 11:00 AM High Mass.

Weather permitting, we encourage outdoor picnicking. Please bring tables and chairs if desired as seats at the church are limited and can go fast.

We need volunteers!

If you would like to help or have questions, contact Erin Gross at 978.387.5363.
