From the web: 1904-1906: The first church was constructed on a site at the corner of Kinau & Pensacola Streets with 400 persons in attendance. The first service was held in September 1906. By 1914, membership increased to 502 & the church became self-supporting. Nov. 1932: On a site at the corner of Pensacola & Elm Streets, a new building was erected in the design & splendor of a Japanese castle. The church's unique architecture was modeled after Kochi Castle. When World War II began on December 7, 1941, Hawaii was placed under martial law & meetings at night were banned. Military chaplains & servicemen took part in worship services & other activities during the war years. 1957: The torch of leadership passed from the Japanese-speaking to the English-speaking congregation when Rev. Paul Nagano became senior pastor & Dr. Toraji Makino was installed as Japanese Division associate pastor. The English-speaking division was already more than twice the size of the Japanese-speaking division. 1983: Hawaii Kai United Church of Christ, another branch mission of Makiki's, attained full-fledged status as a UCC church.
