Description
Native Hawaiians came to the services from as far as Mahaulepu to Hanapepe and Koloa Beach to Ku'ia. These people, some on horseback, but mostly on foot, came all that way just to hear the Word of God. Reports say that the early congregation numbered from nine to fifteen hundred.
The chapel served the congregation until 1859 when it was torn down to make way for a new frame building. This undertaking was carried to completion through the energy and devotion of Reverand James W. Smith, M.D. He served as a missionary, pastor and doctor from 1842 to 1887. This new and improved church served the congregation for 70 years. It stood as a silent witness to all of the changes which have occured in the islands over the years.
