2 ND QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS
Little School Has A Big Heart
Lanakila Baptist Church and School is 50 years old, and
has been donating food to various missions for at least
the last 14 years. This year it collected 19,387 lbs of

our church and school families. May God richly bless
you!

Piano Recital
Thursday, December 15 th , our piano students demonstrated their
proficiency on the piano. Whether they are new at the keyboard or
have been taking lessons for a while, they did a wonderful job. We
appreciate the wonderful job Liuba Pupo Ortega has done in training
them.
Waipahu Christmas Parade
Saturday, December 10 th , many of our 4 th -6 th
joined in the Christmas fun at this year’s
Waipahu Christmas Parade. They shared candy,
warm smiles, and shaka waves along the parade
route, but the best part...they reminded people
to share Christ this Christmas! All the presents
in the world have no lasting value. Salvation is
only through Christ. The greatest gift of all.
