I. Personal Reflections
This past year of ministry across our incredible convention of churches has been very encouraging and uplifting as Wendy and I have connected with more of our churches and ministries. We have shared with you in the joys and the sorrows of the Kingdom work that God has given us to fulfill, but in it, we have seen God be glorified and magnified through us all.
Your support of Wendy and me has continued to grow. Our time with you has brought us closer to knowing you and what God has you pursuing for Him. The transition of our role has taken a couple of years to learn, but it has been very exciting and rewarding.
As a whole, our churches have grown spiritually, cooperatively and numerically in the past year. Many of our churches are still recovering from the financial crisis, but are serving and giving with more dedication and sacrifice than ever before. You are realizing the impact of our cooperative work and are continuing to deeply embracing the goal of serving together. The multi-strand cord is always stronger!
Our relationship with other state conventions has grown to become a broader source of partnership and resourcing. Some state conventions, such as the Southern Baptists of Texas Convention and the SBC of Virginia have committed to deepening their relationship with our churches to assist in any way possible. Our western state convention partners, like the Nevada Baptist Convention, Arizona Southern Baptist Convention and the Northwest Baptist Convention are assisting our HPBC team in new ways of strategy and training to better reach the similar people groups of the western United States and the Pacific.
The North American Mission Board is continuing to be supportive of our church planting and evangelistic strategies. They realize that our demographics may not be like most of the other locations across America, but we are committed to assisting churches in reaching more communities and language groups in the Pacific and Asia with the power of the Gospel. We embrace the support of the North American Mission Board as we pursue the challenges of sharing Christ and planting churches in Hawaii, America Samoa, Guam and CNMI.
Our close ties with the International Mission Board are reaching new heights. This annual gathering in Kona will host the first IMB East Asia One Day Conference for the HPBC. We could not be more excited and thankful for our IMB teams throughout Asia that have committed to work alongside of us, as we in return are committed to serve alongside of them. This will result in a stronger network of partnering ministries, striving to fight lostness in Asia and around the world. As the people of the Pacific and Asia are becoming more connected, our prayer is that we can use those connections to reach more with the Gospel in the days ahead.
This past year, we have enjoyed a stronger connection with our Southern Baptist Seminaries. Locally based seminary classes through Gateway and Southwestern Seminary are building foundations for excellent theological education for the people of Hawaii, South Pacific and Asia. We pray that these will grow to the level that our local students will remain in our churches while they earn their degrees. We also have enjoyed the training in our churches brought through New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary and Southern Seminary. These are powerful resources for us that we may be better equipped for the work of ministry.
Again this year, encouragement from the Executive Committee has been strong regarding an increase in Cooperative Program giving across the SBC. Their role is often behind the scenes, but the effects are felt throughout our convention of churches. As you continue to faithfully give through the Cooperative Program, you can be assured that God is using our cooperation for greater and greater works than any of us can do alone. There is not a better method of investing in the Kingdom of God than through the Cooperative Program!
Although we still may be struggling in times of economic hardship, do not lose sight of how your Cooperative Program giving is changing lives at home and around the world. CP is not feeding a machine of religious work – it is sending and resourcing amazing people and amazing works in addition to your own efforts. Even around you today are men and women, missions and ministries, and much more that is making and unbelievable difference because you are supporting them through prayer, partnerships and finances.
For those of you that do not understand the dynamics of the Cooperative Program, I encourage you to contact me for more information. Of any Christian organization, CP is still the strongest, most proven method for financially supporting God’s Kingdom work– and there is no greater vehicle for effectively giving into so many wonderful ministry areas than CP!
Again for 2016, I am deeply grateful and humbled to be given the opportunity to serve you and your church. Your team at the HPBC offices is always ready to assist and serve you as your follow Christ. God bless you and enjoy our annual gathering!
Aloha In Christ,

Church Planting Movement & Process: The process of church planting follows basically 4 phases: 1) Engaging the community of a particular people group; 2) Forming a fellowship that gathers with the purpose of church plant; 3) Launching a Church-type mission that gathers in regular bases for bible study, worship, pastoral care and outreaching activities. It functions as a church, but it is not constituted yet; 4) Constituting a church. It functions as an independent church.

CHURCH OUTREACH (Evangelism, Prayer and Worship) Michael “Bong” Abagon 2016 Annual Report
Hawaii Pacific Baptist Convention Evangelism Department is committed to resourcing, training and supporting events that are evangelistic in nature. All throughout the year, churches have responded and stepped up to the plate of being trained, sharing their faith and celebrating conversation through baptism.
Jesus commanded us to “Go into all the world, and make disciples of all nations” (Matt. 28:19). It is not “mission impossible”. Neither does it take a scientist to figure it out. God gave us His Spirit that we can be mighty witnesses of Him (Acts 1:8). So here are four small steps to a healthy evangelism: Praying – the first step is trusting and depending on God. “Pray ye to the Lord of the Harvest that he may send forth laborers” (Matt. 9:38). Imagine, as the bible says “the heart of a king is in the hands of God” and he turns it as He wills, how much more every person who don’t know him (Prov. 21:1). Only God can give a “new heart and put a new spirit (Ezek 36:26).” Evangelism begins in prayer. Engaging – this step means that every believer shares to everyone and everywhere. “Into all the world” includes every ethnicity and in every place. Part of this big step is the mini–step of being trained constantly to learn how to weave the good news in every situation (1 Peter 3:15). Sowing - the third step to evangelism is intentionality. Personal or within the local church, we need to follow the example of Paul, “to the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some” (1 Cor. 9:22). Harvesting – the fourth step to evangelism is marked by asking for a decision. Only God guarantees a favorable response, but if it is, part of harvest is to celebrate the decision through baptism and assimilation to the local church.
Let’s celebrate what God has done throughout this year.
EVANGELISM TRAININGS/CONFERENCES Evangelism Response Center and Evangelism Party Trailer. Both went through a total remake over the summer. NAMB has revised ERC which requires three of our HPBC trainers to undergo new training. The ERC is a system that receive calls to 1-800-Jesus -20 state and nationwide. This effort allows local churches keep track of prospects. The Evangelism Party Trailer of Oahu went through a total re-skin. In addition to making the trailer engaging and attractive (like a moving billboard), the new look bears three other important characteristics: (1) bible verse – John 14:6 (2) 1-800-Jesus-20 (3) the convention’s website: hpbaptist.net.
(Sept, 2016) Reasonable Faith in an Uncertain World Conference: Christian’s Response to Islam and LGBT (Oahu and Kona). Two power house apologetic conferences were hosted featuring speakers like Dr. Craig Hazen and Dr. Paul Spears. The purpose of the event is to help
believers carry an informed and kind conversation regarding specific issues, like Islam and LGBT. In addition, the breakout sessions covered the 6 tiers of Evangelism expressions: Pre- Evangelism, Church Evangelism, Personal Evangelism, Pulpit Evangelism, Follow up and Discipling To Evangelism and Youth Evangelism. These sessions were led by local partners and local pastors. Here is a survey that shows what attendees experienced at the event:
Kona Oahu 23 Evaluations (paper) 39 evaluations (paper) Conference meet my 82% Strongly Agree 46% Strongly Agree expectations 8% Agree 53% Agree I can put what I learned to 86% Strongly Agree 43% Strongly Agree immediate use 13% Agree 53% Agree In Oahu, Music was mentioned in a survey as a concern while in Oahu and Kona, Promotion was mentioned as a concern.
We are grateful for the leadership on both venues. Kona had Bob Duffer, Steven Hedlund, Jay Parks, Dean Stanley, Denver Copeland, Bong Abagon and Leon Baker while Oahu had Sterling Lee, Jarod Juriga, Steve Irvin, Carlye Lawrence, Vince and Lisa Tabudlo, Teresa and Darrell McCain, Robert Miller and Bong Abagon.
EVANGELISM EVENTS March, 2016: Jason Elam Outreach Events (Oahu and Hilo): 17 churches and ministry partners in Oahu and Hilo participated in Jason Elam Outreach and used it as a strategic evangelism effort. Prayer and training preceded both events. Pastors Zeke of Ohana Baptist and Karl of Kinoole led the way in unifying the pastors of Hilo. Oahu was blessed with the leadership of Pastor Alan who rallied their people to make this their outreach project. The two-time Super Bowl ring champion enjoyed his time and promises to do another event next year, Lord willing. This year’s event was made possible by other partners like Hawaii Prayer Breakfast. 2017 will be with Alec & Belle Waterhouse Lecture Series. More stories can be found at hpbaptist.net/jasonelam.
Some stats and information from the two events are as follows:
OAHU HILO Churches: Mililani BC, Cornerstone FBC, Churches: Hilo BC, Kinoole BC, Ohana, FBC of Wahiawa, Waipio BC, Waianae Engage, Outreach, Seafarers, Hawaii Christian BC, Heritage, BCM Hilo, Puna BC, Paradise Park Word of Truth BC, Waiakea Uka,

April, 2016: Sarah Balabagan Outreach - Oahu: The Filipino Association made up of 7 Filipino churches in Oahu made a unified effort to reach the Filipinos and and non-filipino community. The night was also joined by other evangelical musicians who are known in the music world.
Condemned to death by the government of the United Arab Emirates, Sarah was joined by international countries seeking for leniency. She eventually received 2 years in prison, 100 lashes and $40,000.00 blood money. She became a hero, a professional singer and years later her life was turned into a big-screen movie after coming back to the Philippines. She turned her life to Jesus eventually and she was banned from her Muslim family and community. Now Sarah is a sought- after speaker and an active advocate for Human Trafficking victims and Oversees Filipino workers. Since being trained under Campus Crusade for Christ, she trumps the message of Christ.
With close to 350 people coming, 106 turned in decisions cards with 16 trusting Jesus, 25 asking for prayer request and 2 seeking to connect to a local church. Most guests come from Waipahu, a known community for Filipinos.
From both events, decision cards were distributed to the pastor of the closest local church or to those who invited them to the event. We hope and pray that these decisions will continue to grow and will be made disciple of Jesus. Kahu Zeke appropriately observed it this way, “don’t let the authenticity of the response concern you…thank God that people responded by filling out the card, and that He has given us an OPEN DOOR (Col. 4:2-4) to make a personal gospel connection with the individual.
July , 2016. Sarah Balabagan Outreach (Guam and Saipan) The Baptist Association of Micronesia was the partnering agency that helped reach individuals for Jesus.

Feb 20, 2016. College Student Evangelism Training, Oahu. 15 college students attended the training mostly from Baptist Collegiate Ministry. The training was to prepare them for spring missions. The incorporation of 3 circles and an On-the-Job Training made it a profitable endeavor.
PRAYER MINISTRY. Decision America Tour – Feb. 24, 2016. The HPBC Evangelism Department encouraged Baptist Ohana to join Franklin Graham for a day of prayer and challenge at the Capitol. Funds were forwarded to Oahu Baptist Network to provide bus transportation to two specific region: Leeward and Pearl Harbor/Airport. While there were an estimated 2000 people at the rally, my guess is there were more than 200 Baptists from our congregations who participated.
To date, Church evangelism funding came to $34,602.00 which served a total of 23 evangelism events among the local church. Here they are broken down by association. FUNDING REQUEST FROM CHURCHES FOR JAN - SEPT 2016 = $34,602.00 BAM, $1,500.00, 4%

We still have the last quarter of the year, which will give us the chance of closing the gap between our plan and our goal for the year 2016. The budget average is $102,917 per month and the actual average is $89,323 at this point, which is a major drop compared to 2015. We need to keep praying that we will do better and since it is budget time again, we really need the support of our churches in order for the HPBC to be strong and be able to help support and strengthen our churches as partners in ministry. Please keep our HPBC staff in your prayers, as we seek to make the necessary adjustments and changes to our budget in order to be better stewards as we serve our churches in our convention. This fund is vital to the HPBC because it is the well that we draw from for support as we work to provide avenues that help us to be more resourceful to all of our churches, especially those that need our help. We have been working diligently to modify our system in order to help the ministries in our churches to reach our communities and the people in order to share the gospel message. Our goal is for the Hawaii Pacific Baptist Convention to be mobile and great equippers for all of our churches and members here in Hawaii and the Pacific Rim.
Missions Giving: The Lottie Moon Christmas Offering(LMCO) has been doing very well and through September, we have received $228,608, which is 21.9% above our plan or $41,108 higher than our goal. We are in the final quarter of the year, so I feel positive that we will reach our goal of $250,000 for 2016. With this mission offering heading towards meeting the goal for the year, we have $21,392 before we make our plan for the year. We need to maintain a positive attitude that we will help provide the assistance the International Mission Board (IMB) needs to send and keep missionaries and assist ministries in the foreign mission field for the year 2016 and into the future. Let us keep the IMB in our prayers as David Platt and his team continue to seek ways to streamline their budget in order to be more effective as they send mission teams to the foreign mission field of service. We are so grateful for all that contribute to this fund and for your generous hearts in supporting our missionaries and the ministries they conduct in the foreign mission field. Mission offerings like this one demonstrate how a group of believers can make a difference in the world and help spread the gospel through our foreign missionaries and ministries. Even if a person gives $1, that person contributed to the spreading of the
gospel message of our Lord Jesus Christ. Thank you for your generous contributions and making a difference through our International Mission Board (the IMB).
The Annie Armstrong Easter Offering(AAEO) has not been as positive compared to the LMEO. This year, the AAEO received $90,608.26 through September, which is -19.50% or $21,892 short of our goal. We have the months of October through December in order to reach our goal of $150,000 or $59,392 to raise by the end of the year. The LMEO fund is now being promoted, but our churches can still contribute to the AAEO till the end of the year. The HPBC really appreciate all the support we receive from our churches and we want to continue to encourage our church members and pastors to support this mission offering. Let us strive to reach our goal of $150,000 for 2016. Each dollar amounts we received counts as we support missionaries and ministries within our North American states. As I stated earlier, we still have September through December for our churches that haven’t sent in their contributions for the year to do so. This is another fund that will help support our missionaries involved with our North American mission field and/or domestic ministries in order to spread the gospel and reach people for Jesus Christ. Our goal for the year 2016 is is still $150,000. Let's continue to encourage people to support our domestic missionaries and ministries that seek to reach people in the United States and Canada for Christ. Thank you for all of your continued support and prayers.
The Sue Nishikawa State Mission Offering(SMO) has raised $31,854 through September 2016 and we are now in the season for the the Sue Nishikawa State Mission Offering. Right now, we are -63.1% of our plan, our churches and members are still send our office their contributions that were received. Please encourage the members of your church and other churches to promote this offering in their church because this fund provides assistance to our churches in Hawaii and the Pacific Rim. It supports and encourages our churches to do more new types of ministries in their communities in order to reach people for our Lord Jesus Christ. Once again, our goal is $115,000. In order for your church to receive some funding from this offering, your church has to be contributing to the State Mission Offering Fund. Please continue to promote your church’s goal in order for us to reach our planned figure for the year in the amount of $115,000. Teresa McCain is our administrator of these funds, so if you have any questions, you can reach her at (808) 356-8326 or (808) 946-9581, ext. 326. Let us strive to reach our goal for this year and exceed the amount raised in 2015 ($87,805) and help support our churches and their ministries throughout the Pacific Rim. Please continue to keep the SMO funds and our pastors and churches in your prayers.
The World Hunger Fund Offering has raised $7,191.33 through September 2016. This fund is $22,808 or 76.0% below our goal through September and our goal is $30,000 up to this point in time. We still have October through December to make up the difference and pursue our goal of $40,000 for this year. The homeless problem continues to rise here in Hawaii with more young families and older people not having a choice and taking to the streets with young children because they can’t afford to keep up with the higher housing cost. This means that more families and individuals are either going to homeless shelters, or camping in areas where they can find shelter. This problem causes many to go hungry or looking for ways to feed themselves and their family members. Our local government is seeking ways to provide homeless shelters and trying to get people and churches to partner with them to help the homeless problem and finding ways to feed them. This Hunger Fund is to help our national problem and some funds are sent here to help our churches meet these needs in their community. We won’t solve the homeless problem, but at least we can help support the people in need in Hawaii and
around the world. This is a global issue and not just an issue within the state of Hawaii. We need a lot of prayers and I thank all of the churches that are involved in going to the Homeless Shelters and help feed the hungry. For the most part, we are still stressing the need for us to support this national and local effort to feed the poor and reaching the homeless for the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. Please keep the World Hunger problem in your prayers and continue to support this fund. God bless all of our pastors and church members that seek to support this cause in our society.
BUILDING & GROUNDS MAINTENANCE: Scott Lesley and Wesley Perry have returned to Hawaii in July and left in August. While they were here, they did repair work on our dorm replacing a window and fixing part of the wall and beams for that portion of the dorm and painted that area once it was done. They also painted the Kamehameha Bishop Estate Preschool building (former HBA West Campus) in Waianae and did a marvelous job on it. If you are in the Waianae vicinity, go and take a peek at the job they did in painting both buildings. Because of the high winds earlier in the year, which caused a lot of damage to the Pu’u Kahea Conference Center and the KSBE Preschool, St. Farm Insurance covered the cost in reroofing both buildings of the preschool. Once that project was done, Scott and Wes, and their team, helped us with some modifications here at our office and did some painting and repair work, which were needed to improve our office settings. We are truly grateful for all they did while they were here and look forward to their return in 2017. Please keep Scott Lesley and Wesley Perry, also spouses and family, in your prayers as they plan to return and help the HPBC with more projects for 2017 and that they will be blessed with good health throughout the year.
VERIZON PROJECT: Verizon is still working on their plans for installing an antenna on the roof top of our chapel and leasing part of our property to install a back-up generator and control panels to make available wireless services to their customers up in the Manoa area. They are still finalizing their plans and are close to beginning their project. Please keep this project in your prayers, as we seek to work as partners in this area of services.
DISASTER RELIEF AND FACILITIES MANAGEMENT Darrell McCain 2016 Annual Report
What a great Year, God is so good! We see God working in our lives and in Hawaii.
I finished my 4 year 2 terms Chairmanship with the Hawaii State VOAD (Voluntary Organizations Active in Disasters) in December 2015. I believe I have elevated the VOAD to be a better organization with additional Relief organizations becoming active here in Hawaii. I will stay on with Executive officers as a consultant to help with transition.
I have been selected to represent SBDR region 6 on the NAMB Disaster Relief steering committee for a two year term. I will be part of a team that will be helping to move SBDR forward as we continue the ministry of bringing Help, Healing, and Hope to a hurting world.
I am working on a rebuild in Saipan after Typhoon Soudelour. It is a slow process but we need to help families get a roof back on their homes. I am working with Pastor Billy and Joy who have a new church plant in Kagman, Saipan. I need more teams to go to Saipan and work.
A new semester has started at the dorm and there have been the usual comings and goings of new students in this process. At the end of this semester, we will have completed seven years managing the dorm. It has been such a blessing to watch students grasp the idea of ministry and see how God has used them on their campuses and across the world. We have really enjoyed our time at the dorm, but God has called us to end our ministry in the dorm after the spring semester. Teresa will now be serving as the Women’s Ministry Coordinator as her Mission Service Corp volunteer position. Her work will include Women Ministry, WMU, Mission Education, and Wives in Ministry, while still doing Disaster Relief and working part-time at the Hawaii Baptist Foundation.
Disaster Relief training: March 5 at UABC, Oahu, May 7 at Mililani BC, Oahu. January 25-29: Teresa and I went to the NAMB DR Roundtable in Nashville, Teresa trained in Incident Command System and I trained in Safe Serve food handlers. February 25: I conducted Blue Hat Unit training on Maui March 28-30: I attended our DR Region 6 meeting in Nevada. This was a great time to collaborate with our DR Directors from region 6 that include Hawaii, California, Nevada, New Mexico, and Arizona. April 11-15: I attended the NAMB DR Steering Committee retreat in Georgia. We worked on our new strategic plan for Disaster Relief. I attended the National VOAD conference this Month to represent Hawaii VOAD. DR chainsaw volunteers helped the Puu Kahea staff cut up blown over trees from the wind storm in March. I conducted Blue Hat leader training on Maui and Oahu for DR volunteers ready to move in to a unit leadership role. I attended several preparedness fairs partnering with the City and County of Honolulu sharing with the public on what Southern Baptist Disaster Relief will do in a crisis. We also encourage the public to get prepared for a disaster.
I worked with the Hawaii State VOAD to respond in the several tropical storms and hurricanes this season. Fortunately so far there has not been a big need. I continue working with churches and our volunteers to train and be prepared. I am working now to build up our Chaplain ministry.
Maintenance: Perry and Barbara Looney came and worked on the Nehoa house clearing trees and over growth. Perry replaced the fence in the back yard. Barbara cleaned the interior and installed new drapery. Perry and Jim Talefero installed a new air-condition in down stairs along with new wiring. I reupholstered the dining chairs in Nehoa guest house.
Perry Looney prepared the footing for a new slab for the new dorm laundry building, Jim, Gerry and Darrell poured concrete. Perry and I erected the building shed. I installed one window AC unit in the dorm manager’s apartment for our new dorm managers. I completed painting and replacing the flooring in the dorm apartment.
Jim also crafted and installed new wood trim in the church planting center.
I replaced two window AC units on the International building and replaced lights and some ballasts.
This summer Scott Lesley and his team from North Carolina came as they do every year and help us with major repairs. This summer they completed painting the school building at Puu Kahea. Scott installed a large window on the dorm and repaired some major termite and water damaged wood around the window. This is on the Ewa side of building. They also finished the bedroom floor in the manager’s apartment.
Scott and his team worked on our convention office during their last week, painting the hallway and remodeling the front office area. This was a great help as we are working to be more efficient to serve our churches and better equip them.
RA/GA Mission Adventure Camp: RA/GA Mission Adventure Camp was another successful camp with 31 decisions for the Lord. We had over 80 campers and sponsors this year. I really love this camp and appreciate all the staff help and sponsors. I especially appreciate the Puu Kahea staff for all their hard work clearing the blown over trees so we could have the camp.
Teresa and I will continue serving in Hawaii although Teresa has resigned from Dorm Manager to lead our women’s ministry. With this we needed to move out of the dorm. God is so amazing! We have a very small budget for living in Hawaii yet God provided a home for us in Aiea. Please pray for us as we transition to paying rent and utilities and commuting. We know God will provide.
WOMEN'S MINISTRIES Teresea McCain 2016 Annual Report
At the beginning of this year, I began working alongside Faith McFatridge as WMU Executive Director so that the transition would be smooth when Faith retired in February. I began officially as the Director of Women’s Ministry in March. I completed my work as the Baptist Student Dorm Manager in July. It has been a big step of faith to leave housing that was graciously provided for us and to move to housing we pay for. God certainly blessed us with affordable housing that we hope to use for His glory in Aiea. God is good all the time!
2015 Sue Nishikawa Offering for Hawaii Pacific Missions Our theme for 2015 was Power To Serve. While we did not reach our goal of $115,000, we did receive $82,804.88. This amounted to 72% of the offering goal. It was distributed as follows: Evangelistic Ministries and Healthy Churches (30%) - $24,841.50 State and Associational Ministries (25%) – $20,701.25 Financial Aid for Students (8%) - $6,624.40 Disaster Relief (5%) – $4,140.25 Church Emergency (2%) – $1,656.10 Scholarships (15%) – $12,420.75 WMU Administration (10%) – $8,280.50 Promotion (5%) – $4,140.25 We have received to date 11 requests for a total of $17,083 disbursed from the Evangelistic Ministries and Healthy Churches and 7 requests for a total of $15,375 disbursed from the State and Associational Ministries.
National WMU January Board Meeting in Birmingham, AL I was able to attend my first WMU January Board meeting in Birmingham this past January. What a time of inspiration and learning it was for me! After the January Board Meeting, the state Executive Directors went to Shocco Springs, AL where we had two days of meetings and trainings. We were blessed to hear from both David Platt and Kevin Ezell about the changes with IMB and NAMB. It was so good to hear David Platt’s heart about the downsizing of our foreign mission force and also his vision for the future. Although it is a tough thing to downsize, it was the prudent thing to do and was done with much prayer. He did encourage the states to welcome home the missionaries who chose to take the retirement incentives and to be sensitive to their needs in the days to come.
HPBC WMU 2016 Annual Meeting The final count for registration for the 2016 WMU Annual Meeting was 161, representing 26 churches. Linda Cooperman, the new WMU National President, was our keynote speaker and breakout session leader. She spoke on the topic of Power to Serve. Our four breakout sessions were on Missions Prayer Support led by Linda Cooperman; Missions Education led by Teresa and Darrell McCain; Missions Support led by Chris and Judy Evans; and Doing Missions led by Rob and Donna Thommarson, former IMB missionaries to Russia. Worship was led by Cheryl Sanders of Waialae Baptist Church.
At the Annual Meeting, an offering was taken in honor of Alice Newman. A total of $2,895.00 was given and sent to the WMU Foundation for the Alice Newman Touch Tomorrow Today Endowment
Fund. From that fund each year, 2.5 percent of the total value is given to HPBC WMU to use with no stipulations, 2 percent of the value is given to the National WMU for the Vision Fund, and .5 percent is give to the WMU Foundation. From that account, this year we received $827.00 to be used by HPBC WMU.
From the Second Century Fund, started in 1988, which provides the needed resources to grow and expand WMU’s leadership development of women in missions, we received $2,482.00 this year. Each state receives a percentage of the interest from the fund. The funds must then be used entirely for leadership development in that convention. This year, I am taking a younger woman with me to attend the Women’s Leadership Forum held in Nashville, TN in November. The money will cover our airfare, lodging and registrations for this training. Any additional funds required will be covered by WMU funds.
Pinewood Derby Our last Pinewood Derby was held Saturday, February 20th at the HPBC Chapel. There were 31 participants from 2 churches. Trophies were given to the top three in each category – Grades 1-3; Grades 4-6, and Youth/Leaders. There were also trophies for Best Paint and Best Design for both grade levels.
RA/GA Mission Adventure Camp This year’s Mission Adventure Camp “I’m a Survivor – God Gives Me Strength” took place at Pu’u Kahea on March 17-19. There were 84 total at the camp, 60 campers and 24 sponsors. There were seven churches represented. Brad and Sheri Chow were the camp pastors and a youth worship team comprised of youth from Red C Church and Mililani Fil-Am Church led worship. There were 31 total decisions made for Christ and/or Christian service at the camp. Despite the fact that the campground lost 10 trees to incredible wind just days before camp, The Pu’u Kahea staff and volunteers, along with DR volunteers and BCM volunteers, worked very hard to get the trees cut down as far as possible so that we could have camp. We were not able to use 2 of the 3 K Cottages but there were still enough rooms left to house our largest camp ever! Our featured Bible stories were about Very Bad Days and how God can use them for good. What an example of the campground having a Very Bad Day with the wind but God used the volunteers’ hard work and determination that allowed camp to be held where 31 life-changing decisions were made for Christ! What a mighty God we serve!
Wives in Ministry Retreat This year’s retreat was held at Pu'u Kahea on March 31-April 3. Our speaker was Diana Davis, an author, syndicated columnist, and wife of Steve Davis, the Vice President of North American Mission Board. Her daughter, Autumn Wall, a church planter’s wife from Indianapolis, led the worship. There were 58 wives in attendance, 15 of which were first-time attendees. The theme was “Restored”. The wives enjoyed the sessions, as well as several free time activities during the weekend.
WMU Annual Meeting in St. Louis Darrell and I were able to attend the WMU Annual Meeting in St. Louis this June. We participated in the board meeting and then attended several of the trainings offered. Listening to the missionaries was definitely a highlight for us. After the WMU Meeting wrapped up, the Southern Baptist Convention began. It was exciting to be a part of the greater Southern Baptist family. Immediately following the
SBC, Disaster Relief held a two-day meeting in at the First Baptist Church in Ferguson, Missouri. Following that whirlwind week, we took a much needed and enjoyed vacation with our family in Texas.
Acteens in Hawaii On July 9th, two groups of Acteens arrived in Hawaii. One group, led by Alma Long, came from California. They worked with Ikaika and Stacey Higa at Hamama Community Church, leading VBS and working in the community. The second group, led by Cindy Townsend, came from Mississippi. They worked with Harlan and Dana Nakasone at Fellowship Baptist Church in Waipahu, leading VBS. Many gospel seeds were planted during this time and there were 15 professions of faith recorded. At the end of the week of VBS in Waipahu, 14 children were baptized. Both groups also attended the Tuesday night service of the Seafarer’s ministry and were able to lead the worship and spend time talking story with the seafarers. Some of the Acteens also participated in the Homeless Outreach with the youth at the OBN Youth Camp. They capped off their time here with an Acteens Rally on Saturday night. We were so blessed to have those two groups (a total of 26) here in the islands. I’m hoping it sparks interest in restarting Acteens in Hawaii.
2016 Sue Nishikawa Offering for Hawaii Pacific Missions Much of the summer was spent preparing the materials for the 2016 Sue Nishikawa Offering for Hawaii Pacific Missions. The materials were sent out to the churches in August. We are praying for this offering as 100 percent of this offering supports work here in the Hawaii Pacific Baptist Convention.
Women’s Mentoring Ministry We have launched the beginning phases of creating a women’s mentoring ministry called HPBC Woman to Woman. A group of 16 women gathered to begin casting a vision for this ministry. The younger women of HPBC desire to have meaningful relationships with older godly women. We are planning events to bring the women of HPBC together to help build those relationships. The first event took place on Friday, November 4th. Fifteen women got together to paint a picture and build relationships with each other. What makes this new ministry so exciting is that the younger women truly want more experienced women to come alongside them as they navigate life. This is our opportunity to build relationships with this generation and encourage them to stay in the church. We are planning a Ladies Tea on Monday, January 16th from 10:30am - 1:00 pm at the HPBC Chapel. You can RSVP to [email protected] by January 10th for the Woman to Woman Tea Party. We will have a Panel Discussion during the Tea on Multigenerational Mentoring. Please plan to be a part of this exciting ministry.

Please continue to pray for the work in our convention to reach college students for God’s glory.
HAWAII BAPTIST FOUNDATION Serving Christian Stewards Arnold Goto, President
The Lord has allowed the Hawaii Baptist Foundation to serve our HPBC community in three ways:
The Foundation provides funds management services for long-term financial assets held by our churches and institutions.
The Foundation manages endowments that have been created to fund the many important ministries of the HPBC.
Finally, the Foundation helps individuals to plan for their retirement, provide for their heirs, and support important Christian causes.
During the 2015-2016 HPBC fiscal year, two new endowment funds were established by Christian stewards. In December 2015, a donor-advised fund was instituted to provide for the needs of Big Island churches. In March 2016, an endowment fund was formed to offer scholarships for the Oahu Baptist Network youth camp.
With the investment oversight of our HPBC-appointed board, our funds management services allow churches to receive healthy market returns, and at the same time protect funds from misspending. We are especially grateful to God for these volunteers who help to oversee and protect the investments of the Foundation.
We were blessed with strong financial performance for this past fiscal year. Churches with funds invested with the Foundation for the entire year received returns over 9%. Through God’s provision, this year the Foundation earned over $1.2M for our churches and institutions.
President’s Concluding Remarks:
The financial results would be meaningless if it were not for the important Kingdom-building work for which the funds are raised. We pray for God’s continued blessing upon the work that is being done with these funds, and that there be an abundance of fruit and affirmation for our churches, our institutions, and their ministries.
Our Foundation directors share Bible readings together at the end of every full board meeting. I pray that this always be the most important part of our gatherings. We are thankful that we are able to serve together in ways that glorify Him!
HAWAII BAPTIST ACADEMY Annual Report to the Hawaii Pacific Baptist Convention 2015-2016 School Year
Opening Remarks: We are pleased for this annual opportunity to share what God is doing at Hawaii Baptist Academy. He is faithful and continues to tremendously bless our school. We are always thankful to the Lord for the dedication and Christian commitment of our faculty, staff, and administrators. This year, HBA had the privilege to celebrate and honor a much respected and devoted leader, President Richard Bento.
On June 3, more than 300 HBA families, alumni, and HBA supporters gathered at the elementary school to celebrate Dick's service to HBA, which spans 31 years. Guests enjoyed a gourmet meal beneath lanterns and chandeliers strung from tents at the elementary school courtyard, along with special musical performances by the Soldiers of Light Choir and HBA Brass Ensemble. Members from our school community shared memories and expressed words of appreciation for Dick’s contribution to the school community. Robert Uyeda, first vice president of the Hawaii Pacific Baptist Convention (HPBC), presented a resolution from the convention's board in honor of Dick. Clyde Kakiuchi, director of Church Growth Ministries for the HPBC, presented a gift from the office on behalf of HPBC executive director Chris Martin, who also shared a greeting via video.
As we compile this report, we feel confirmation in our hearts that it is God who brings the parts together and makes everything possible. He gives HBA the fortitude to sustain its mission to share the gospel through Christian education. The achievements of our students in the classroom and community and the number who choose to follow Christ each year are the blessings that refresh and inspire us to be faithful servants and good stewards at HBA.
Elementary, Middle School, High School Principals: Amy Vorderbruegge, George Honzaki, and Marsha Hirae Enrollment and Graduation: The 2015-2016 school year began on August 1 with a total enrollment of 1,060 students in grades K-12. Kindergarten, 4th grade and 6th grade are entry years at the elementary school and the opening enrollment was 395. Grade seven is an entry year for the middle school and the enrollment was 205 students. The high school enrollment, with grade nine as the entry year, was 460 students. We graduated 110 seniors, all of who went on to college, with one National Merit Scholarship Finalist.
Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) / Hawaii Association of Independent Schools (HAIS) / Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) Accreditation: This year the HBA community began the self-study process in order to renew our accreditation. Teams of HBA faculty and staff began surveying constituents and holding focus groups. The data was interpreted and analyzed and the writing of our self-study accreditation work has begun. We anticipate a visit from the accrediting body teams in February of 2017.
Expected Schoolwide Learning Results (ESLRs): As part of the accreditation self-study process, we have adopted new Expected Schoolwide Learning Results (ESLRs) which the school believes will drive positive change on our campuses. The ESLRs are: Humility, Curiosity, Love, and Commitment. Believing Jesus Christ to be the Way, the
Truth, and the Life, Hawaii Baptist Academy brings faith and learning together so that we may join God in the formation of people and the transformation of the world. These words are the preamble to our ESLRs and set the stage for a life steeped in faith and learning.
K-12 All-School Fellowship and Picnic: The school continued the theme of ‘love does’ from the 2014 school year adding one simple word “Love Does Together.” 1 John 3:18 was our theme verse. We kicked off the school year with our allschool fellowship and chapel on August 17, 2015. More than 600 students from HBA’s middle and high school walked down Nuuanu Avenue to meet with their elementary school buddies at the Bates Street campus. The event began with an all-school chapel on the black top. More than 1,000 students, teachers and staff members gathered together to pray and worship God. A second all-school fellowship was held in quarter 3, as part of Christian Emphasis Week.
Association of Christian Schools International – NEXUS: Hawaii Baptist Academy hosted its second ACSI NEXUS conference on November 21-22, 2015. The conference provided an important component to our annual professional development goals focusing on faith integration. The conference was also a time of fellowship among the faculty of various ACSI member schools from across the island in attendance.
Outcome Based Learning (OBL): The sixth grade is piloting a new grading and reporting system based on Learning Outcomes. The purpose of this program is to assess what a student knows more accurately. The teachers identify a set of Learning Outcomes at the start of the school year and design their lessons and assessments to measure student progress against these standards. During each quarter, emphasis is placed on learning and achievement, and less on letter grades. The program has been successful in its first year of implementation and is set to expand through the middle school through 2018.
Campus News Elementary: Students at the elementary campus continue to love Jesus and learning. Their eagerness shows in classroom and chapel as they engage in activities that help them grow. Each homeroom takes a leadership role in chapel as they share a “God Wow” moment highlighting an item in our world that was made by God. During our Christian Emphasis Week, we celebrating with the theme “Love Loud.” Students shared their love for Jesus as they entered nine nearby businesses such as Kuakini Medical Center, Rehab of the Pacific, Olivet Food Pantry and Ho`opono School for the Blind. Sharing songs and encouraging cards was uplifting to those there and provided a great opportunity to give back to our community. Our students continue to show academic growth in all areas and are particularly fond of reading and writing. Our students placed and were recognized at the State Geography Bee, Continental Math League, Continental Writing League, and the ACSI Creative Writing competition.
Teachers on the elementary campus continue to shine in their classrooms as they build relationships with students and grow their arsenal of best practice strategies. Our Professional Learning Communities focused on identifying math outcomes, Outcomes Based Learning, and writing proficiencies. Teachers were introduced and now utilize Brain Breaks, moments during class to stop and get student bodies moving. These breaks are in alignment with the recent brain research supporting
movement in education. In addition, we completed a campus trail around the perimeter of our playground for students to enjoy during recess and after school, yet another opportunity to move.
Middle School: After over 20 years of service, English teacher Debra Tenney resigned to care for her ailing father. Replacing her is Karen Wrobel, a seasoned teacher from the Department of Education.
Mid-year, the 7th grade team began researching and preparing for the implementation of Outcomes Based Learning, which will be adopted through the 2016-2017 school year. This method of instruction places emphasis on student achievement and growth, rather than letter grades. The full implementation of this grading system began last school year in the 6th grade and will continue with the class of 2021 through 8th grade.
To address the social and emotional needs of our students, we implemented two new initiatives: administration-led advisories and a tool called Stop!t. Every Monday, the principal of the middle school met with the class of 2021 to discuss social needs and projects to help build a healthy school climate. The assemblies made the administration more personable and available to students. Secondly, students were given access to the Stop!t App which allowed students to report inappropriate behaviors to the administration anonymously. While we teach our students that this is not the first resource to be used in combating inappropriate behavior such as bullying, it is another tool that students have access to.
High School: Student life at the high school continues to be a place of positive engagement and interaction. There were over thirty student led clubs and campus groups, with more than half the school being involved in at least one organization.
The Student Council put on a series of intramural competitions throughout the year that were very popular and involved several hundred students watching or participating.
The English department sponsored a trip to England with 50 students, and the Spanish department took 27 students to Spain to extend the learning in their content areas.
For the second year in a row, the news production students won Best-in-State in the Hawaii High School Journalism Awards.
Christian Ministries, Middle/High – Robert Lockridge, Director of Christian Ministries Our God is always faithful. Through the 2015-2016 school year, He has done great things. Through His love, grace and mercy, 110 Middle and High School students either committed or recommitted their lives to Christ this year. As these and other students’ faith grow, they naturally want to be obedient and serve their Lord and Savior. Here are some of the ministries we have been involved in this year.
Ministry Team Camp: We held our second Ministry Team Celebration camp this year. Each student that had become a leader in our Ministry Team was invited to go to this time of fellowship and
celebration. Students learned how to be more effective ministers of Christ by attending seminars by teachers and pastors.
Ministry Team Small Groups: Ministry Team Leaders have been encouraged to lead Bible Studies/Accountability Groups with their ministry groups. Each of these 16 teams met each week at both the Middle and High School.
City of Joy: HBA students play a major part in this ministry to the homeless in Waianae and Nanakuli. Each month over twenty students will sacrifice their Saturday morning to help hundreds of families through food distribution. They also have the opportunity to minister to dozens of children through crafts, face painting and other activities. Our students are always encouraged to pray with the children and their parents.
Partners in Development Joint Ministry: The Ministry Team joined with the Partners in Development (PID) organization to provide Christmas gifts to over eighty children. PID operates mobile preschools and kindergartens for children who are homeless are in transition. The Ministry Team students purchased gifts for each individual child and committed to pray for them throughout the Christmas season.
Christian Emphasis Week: Our theme for CEW 2015 was “Overwhelmed” Pastor Matt Sanders from Waialae Baptist Church was our primary speaker with fifty-six students accepting or renewing their faith in Christ, along with another 217 that said their faith in Jesus had grown during the week. Over fifty guest speakers were in attendance, and more than two hundred students voluntarily attended the evening worship services.
Grade Level Camps: Every student from 8th Grade to 12th Grade had the opportunity to attend a Christ focused grade level camp. Each camp is focused on the needs and personalities of the students within their grade. Fifty-six students made a first time commitment or recommitment to follow Jesus as their Lord and Savior during these camps.
Christian Ministries, Elementary – Cindy Gaskins, Campus Minister With an active year of exploring what Love Does, the Elementary School was engaged in a variety of experiences.
15 4-6th grade students made up the Christian Ministries Team, CMTs, and were the first to learn the Chapel Chant of I John 3:18. Each week they led the school in chanting our theme verse including the start of the All School Picnic.
CMTs lead our school for the See You at the Pole praying in September, close to half the school participating in this international student led prayer time.
2nd Quarter started with our Upside Down Christian Emphasis Week. For a week, half of the school day was given to exploring how Jesus came and turned the world upside down in the way He loved and lived. Colleen Burroughs, VP of Passport Camps, presented daily messages that flipped our imagination and opened understanding to new Bible stories that gave evidence of lives turned upside down because of God’s work in the world.
At the end of the week, the 2nd annual trip into the Nuuanu neighborhood meant that over 400 of us went to encourage our neighbors in 8 different locations. Senior adults at Craigside, Honolulu Care Center, and Malulani Hale enjoyed games, music and cards made by students.
The Rehab Hospital and Kuakini Health Care Home received encouragement banners, wall art and door signs for residents and patients. Lanakila Services received Thanksgiving turkey notes for Wheels on Meals while other students learned from Ho’opono Services for the Blind. The whole school contributed over 800 cans of goods which were delivered to the Olivet Baptist Church Food Pantry.
Every homeroom teacher gave students a personal opportunity to make a choice to trust Jesus as Savior and Lord. 43 first time commitments, with of those being 14 new students to HBA, made a choice to become a Christ Follower. 37 stated they have questions about what it means to follow Jesus.
Grow Groups were offered during lunch to these new believers and those with questions about faith in Jesus. Personal Bibles and journals were given to these students.
With our MAC visitors, Student Ambassadors and CMTs helped paint the next set of stained glass windows telling part of God’s Story in our Five Act Play. One day you will be surrounded by highlights of God’s Story on display through our Chapel Windows.
The National Day of Prayer every May is another opportunities we host where students and families gather to pray for our nation. CMTs lead in specific prayers that engage students understanding and participation.
While intentional faith emphasis is given weekly Chapel and CEW, the daily teaching and integration of faith is a goal our team at the Elementary seeks to live out because we know that God’s Love Does make all the difference.
IHS Athletics – Deren Oshiro, Athletic Director God has graciously continued to shower HBA with blessings in the form of students eager to participate, parents willing to support, and coaches dedicated to teaching and encouraging!

Athletics certainly is one of the largest and most visible programs at HBA. We will continue to striving for excellence while maintaining a healthy perspective on athletic competition. Our goal is to somehow have an eternal impact on others through our Christian witness. Thank you for your support and prayers toward this end.
Institutional Advancement – Ron Shiira During 2015-16, Hawaii Baptist Academy received from its community of supporters approximately $1,510,000 in gifts; an increase of 15% from last year. Of that fiscal year total, 75% was designated for our high school expansion project, and 25% for endowments, financial aid, scholarships and other funds. Donations to the school were divided between our mainland and Hawaii donors.
Our school hosted its second Legacy Awards on November 7 at the Dan Liu Gymnasium. The awards ceremony, dinner and silent auction helped raise funds for HBA’s scholarship programs and recognized individuals who have made lasting contributions to God’s work in Hawaii, particularly the ministry of HBA. Five awards were presented to 8 individuals. The most esteemed award is the Lifetime Legacy Award, which is given to those who have made a lasting impact on HBA’s history through their extraordinary service. That award was presented to Dr. Dan H. Kong and Patricia Simmons.
In February, the Mainland Advisory Council celebrated their 40th anniversary during a memorable MAC Week 2016 at the Hale Koa Hotel. Dr. Darold Morgan, a MAC charter member from Richardson, Texas, was the guest devotional speaker. He inspired and challenged our participants recalling God’s blessings over forty years of ministry of the Mainland Advisory Council. Dr. Morgan first visited HBA in 1972 at the invitation of Col. Stan Sagert. The Mainland Advisory Council received four new members at its 40th annual meeting.
The Aloha Council (TAC) continues to actively contribute to HBA’s legacy by strengthening and growing its membership. Its 2015-16 officers were Lorna Hu, chair; Maurine King, vice chair; and Gloria Willaford, secretary. TAC is the local counterpart to the Mainland Advisory Council (MAC) whose purpose is to prayerfully and financially support HBA.
HBA’s Alumni Association continues to grow and is a vital supporter of the school. Its 2015-16 officers were Leighton Miyachi ’84, president; Susan Utsugi ’82, past president; Leighton Hara ’95, vice president; Shawn Saito ’12, secretary; and Alan Yeh ’98, treasurer. Besides sponsoring educational and networking events that bring alumni together and support the mission of HBA, the association’s desire is to contribute and grow its newly established endowment to provide scholarships to financially need worthy HBA students of alumni. HBA has over 4,100 alumni from 63 graduating classes.
God has truly blessed HBA over the past 68 years. The school’s remarkable development is a tribute to the dedication of its faculty and staff, and to the faithfulness and support of our mission- minded friends and churches on the mainland, and here in Hawaii, who have answered God’s call to support His vision for HBA.
Our Lord has blessed Hawaii Baptist Academy with faithful and generous supporters. As of June 2016, HBA has raised about 92% of its $17 million Capital Campaign goal in gifts, pledges and designated funds. We praise God for the overwhelming support from individuals, churches and organizations here in Hawaii and on the mainland. Thank you for your continued support and prayers as we seek to raise the remaining $1.3 million to meet our goal.
Concluding Remarks: We ask that you prayerfully consider how you can continue to support HBA and our mission to provide families with the opportunity for a quality Christian education for their children. We deeply appreciate and thank the churches of the Hawaii Pacific Baptist Convention for your life long encouragement and partnership with HBA in equipping our students for lives of service to others and to God – a school started by our early missionaries and sustained by our Hawaii Baptist Ohana.
In Christ,
Ron Shiira HBA President

GUIDELINES FOR MESSENGERS
Every year, more than 100,000 Southern Baptists are elected messengers or alternates to their state or associational annual meeting. Many of them do not know what to do. This guide intends to help all concerned.
HERE ARE SOME IDEAS FOR: THE LOCAL CHURCH The whole congregation has responsibility toward churches of like faith and order. Churches created by the love of God and in the harmony of faith ought to watch over one another with brotherly affection and encourage one another to do good works. It behooves the church not to leave communication with sister churches as last minute leftovers. Respect for the household of faith demands more than that.
Most Southern Baptist missionary and benevolent work is accomplished through the church and association. Doctrinal unity and evangelistic concern have been nurtured there. The quality of work done by churches is fellowship on mission in their setting relies heavily on the best in mind and spirit that the local church can send.
Messengers to the annual meeting should be selected with prayerful concern by church. Here are specific recommendations. 1. Ask the church nominating committee to include the position of messengers and alternates in its annual report. Elect these messengers along with other church officers. Communication with neighboring churches deserves that consideration. 2. Elect messengers to serve an entire year for semi-annual and called, as well as annual meetings. Such advance election also allows messengers time to prepare mind and spirit. 3. Elect the most capable church leaders because the association or state convention deserves the best. 4. Let the messengers represent the entire congregation by selecting men, women and youth from various church organizations. 5. Be sure associational/state executive board members are also elected messengers to the annual meeting. 6. Be sure to elect the number of messengers to which your church is entitled by the constitution of the state convention. 7. Provide each messenger with a copy of these guidelines. 8. Be sure the messengers have copies of the minutes, constitution and available advance reports. 9. Support the office of messengers by bringing the messengers before the congregation for dedicatory prayer by the pastor on Sunday before the associational/state meeting. 10. Provide time in one or more regularly scheduled church services for the messengers to report on the results of the meeting.
HERE ARE SUGGESTIONS FOR: THE MESSENGER The office messenger originates with the New Testament. Representatives of the Corinth church communicated their gift to Jerusalem. In I Corinthians 16:3, Paul says, "I will send those whom you accredit by letter to carry your gift to Jerusalem." Paul speaks of messengers to Corinth in II Corinthians 8:23, "and as for our brethren, they are messengers of the churches to the glory of God."
The messengers report to the association/state on behalf of his church. He should share with the other messengers a report on his congregation's welfare. Even though he is a representative, the messenger is a free agent. His main purpose is to prayerfully determine the thing God wants his association/state to do or to be, and vote accordingly. In business sessions, he speaks and votes his own conscience, not, necessarily the sentiments of his church. The church is never bound by the vote of its messengers.
PREPARATION 1. Be familiar with the human needs of your community and the strategy your association/state use to meet those needs. 2. Study the constitution and bylaws. These documents, usually placed in the minutes, explain the structure and function of the organization. Special attention should be given to statement of purpose. 3. Review the minutes of the last annual meeting to help prepare for the coming meeting. The minutes record any unfinished business the association/state must handle. 4. Review any advance organizational reports of the association/state. Review also your own church letter or report. 5. Review the principles of parliamentary procedure. 6. Pray that the meetings may be used of our Lord to accomplish his good will, and that you may conduct yourself as a messenger representing a church or our Lord Jesus Christ.
PARTICIATION 1. Upon your arrival at the annual meeting, register immediately with the credentials committee as an authorized messenger. 2. Arrange your schedule so that you can attend the sessions of the annual meeting - all the sessions. An absent messenger is not an asset to the meeting. 3. Exercise your best judgment in the business sessions. Evaluate the reports on budget, calendar, organization's recommendations and resolutions before voting. 4. Decide your vote after hearing the discussion. Do not come to the meeting with a closed mind. 5. Take notes on the sermons and addresses so that you may share their best insights with your home church. 6. Be a responsible participant in the meeting. Remember that this is the Lord's work, too.

BYLAWS of the HAWAII BAPTIST CONVENTION
I. PROCEDURE 1. The messengers shall be elected in the churches on the following basis: a. Ten voting messengers from each church; b. One additional voting messenger for each one hundred members or fractional part thereof beyond the first one hundred members, not to exceed a total of twenty. 2.
