Matthew 28:18-20
18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” -
Ohana Church exists for the Worship of God, Glory of God, People of God, Those Far from God and The
Communities in Which We Live.

statement of faith
Ohana Church’s theology aligns closest to the Restoration Movement where we strive to “restore” the church to its biblical foundation without man-made rituals or traditions.
We believe that there is only one true God who exist in three persons as God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.
We believe that Jesus is the Son of God, who left His position in Heaven, to offer His life as a sacrifice for the sins of mankind. It is only through Jesus that we can be saved.
We believe that the Holy Spirit is our counselor and our seal of salvation. He comes and lives in us and begins the transformation and regeneration of our hearts. The Spirit also empowers us to carry out the ministry that God has given us.
We believe that the Bible is the complete Word of God where we learn about God’s story and our place in it. The Bible is inerrant and alive. It is through His Word that we learn the truth of
the Gospel.
We believe to obtain salvation we must: hear the Word of God, be convicted, confess and repent of ours sins, then declare Jesus as Lord and be baptized.
We believe that the church is the body of Christ and He alone is the head of the church. The church was established so that we may serve others, hear the Word of God, evangelize, be encouraged, and build a family that loves each other.
