The Cathedral Renewal Campaign to Preserve the Cathedral Basilica of Our Lady of Peace
As the Cathedral Basilica of Our Lady of Peace continues to carry out our mission and looks toward our future, it has become evident that significant financial resources are needed to continue God’s good works. In response to the pressing need to address the Cathedral’s deteriorating physical condition, and after diligent study and prayerful consideration, the Cathedral Renewal Campaign has been initiated to provide the resources necessary for this historic endeavor.
To achieve our goals, the Cathedral Basilica is launching the most significant campaign in our history. Our goal to raise $20 million will allow us to address the Cathedral’s comprehensive needs and restore her nineteenth century splendor. It is our hope that, with your help, we will be able to reach our goal and complete our renovations by July, 2027 in time for the 200th anniversary of the arrival of Catholics in Hawaii (July 7,2027).
The Cathedral Renewal Campaign is off to a great start. This video was made by Emme Tomimbang of “Emme’s Island Moments” which shares the history and condition of the Cathedral of Our Lady of Peace. It was seen by hundreds of parishioners during Mass. Its inspirational message brought home the need to contribute to the restoration, renovation and renewal of our historic Cathedral, the heart of the Diocese of Honolulu.
Our Cathedral of Our Lady of Peace has been a special place of worship for generations of Catholics in Hawai’i since 1843. If we each do what we can we will perpetuate our Cathedral and renew our community for many years to come.
