PILGRIMS' ABBEY, Kailua-Kona, Hawaii
The Hawaiian setting
of Pilgrims’ Abbey is graced by the tropical beauty of a secluded
oasis of nearly an acre set on the western slopes of Hualalai
Mountain in beautiful Kailua-Kona, Hawaii. The Contemplative gardens
include a small brook and koi ponds with large shade trees over the
whole up-country location. The Abbey is located at a very
comfortable 940 foot elevation. The exceptional climate is usually
between: 70 and 85 F. (21-32 C.) summer and winter with only 30
inches of rainfall per year. This is upcountry aloha plantation
style living and yet is only 3 miles to the beaches and the
Historical village of Kailua-Kona, Hawaii
The vision is to develop a holy space (or sanctuary) for a New Testament Church to form and to grow like the Early Church in the Book of Acts. St. Luke stopped at chapter 28. We would like it to go on to write Acts 29. Nothing can ever duplicate the Book of Acts but it would be great joy to get a close as possible to the foundations of our faith in Christ Jesus as Lord. The mission will include a fresh return to the Holy Scriptures for the foundational basis of faith and practice. Pilgrims' Abbey is an exceptional space for prayer and meditation in lush, tropical garden surroundings... A place to study without disruption. A place to write a book with excellent support systems and an English library. Communication with the outside world will be kept to a minimum. The Abbey also provides a unique time of community worship and study as well as personal space for spiritual renewal. The Abbey community will gather for general sharing, praise and worship on Saturday evenings with an Agape Supper. An open Bible Study Fellowship meets on Sunday evenings and is open to the general public. If you have a bit of energy or a need for a quit space and would like to come aside for a time to explore the Kingdom of our Lord. Or if you like building things and helping with Missions. This opportunity could give you a new start and much peace and joy in the Lord. Personal guidance from Ken, Sue or other qualified staff members will be available, most of the time, but only if requested.
The Abbey includes two large common area. One is a large reading room the other is a class room and library. There are 5 bedrooms and a Cottage as guest facilities with 3 rooms set aside for staff. All bedrooms include private baths. There is also a wonderful jetted Japanese stone and tile ofuro (Jacuzzi) to soak away some lingering stress. The Abbey compound also includes a wood and craft shop and a computer room office with broad band wireless connections and a grand piano and an electric piano.
Pilgrims’ Abbey is an excellent choice for those needed a time of inner or physical healing, renewal or for considering life purposes and visions in the Holy Spirit. Pilgrims' Abbey may be just the place to help find that new anointed direction from our Heavenly Creator.
