Hello everyone! My name is Kahealani Hunter and I am returning to Star and Holy Trinity for my second year as a missionary!
 
Our Lady Star of the Sea is my home parish. I was received into the Catholic Church here with my family in 2020 after learning about Jesus and His Church through my time in RCIA. I was especially hooked after learning about the Eucharist and how far God’s desire to be in communion with us goes.
 
I have two brothers, one older and one younger, and I come from a pet-loving household with 2 dogs and 3 cats! My dad is in the Navy, so while my missionary year hasn’t taken me too far from home, I have had experience living in a couple of different states, mainly Virginia and Hawaii.
 
I usually spend a lot of my free time crocheting; it’s my number one hobby. I enjoy almost all things puzzles including jigsaw puzzles, riddles, and puzzle games like Portal 2. I will also almost never turn down the opportunity to play a card or board game, especially Rummikub ;)
 
My experience as a missionary here last year was extremely fulfilling and I am so grateful that I was able to minister to the teen Confirmandi! I’m glad to be back and I’m excited to see how the Lord moves in High School Discipleship this year!
