Cathedral Basilica of Our Lady of Peace

Attended a presentation at the Cathedral Basilica explaining about the various architectural and spiritual features of the building. The presenter said that it will be closed for renovations for approximately 8 months to 2 years after this Easter 2025. I encourage everyone to consider making a donation to help with renovations of this historic Cathedral where Saints Damien and Marianne's relics are kept and venerated. Areas that will be renovated include: the pipes on the organ, ceiling, side altars, wood pews, coral columns, side wall paneling and upper balcony and choir loft areas. After the tour we had the opportunity to attend Mass and pray at the special 2025 Jubilee Cross. Visit before Easter Monday before it closes.

During our visit to Honolulu, our first stop was the Cathedral Basilica of Our Lady of Peace. This is a beautiful place to thank God for the gifts we have received 🙏. We loved the artwork of Saints Damian and Mary Ann Cope so much that we went to the gift shop and purchased a few Hawaiian Shirts with these two Saints and the Basilica printed on the shirts. The staff here was so gracious and nice to us as visitors. Thank you.

Amazing!❤️. Very very good Church!✝️. The priest had an awesome homily on how God is the kind, loving and the good shepherd; he also mentioned that Our Savior Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life! Therefore, without any doubt I strongly recommend going to Our Lady of Peace! Know Our Savior Jesus Christ loves you, and have a great day!😃⚓️🌊🙏⛪️

Beautiful historic Church. We attended a wonderful Easter mass.

I came here for the 6am Christmas mass, and it was a little difficult to find the entrance in the dark. It is a fabulous looking church inside, I love the rich history of this cathedral. It was beautifully decorated for Christmas, and it was a great service. I personally have a special place in my life for Father Damien of Moloka'i, as I chose him as my confirmation name. So it is really cool where he was ordained here and is also buried here. My tip is to be aware that there is a parking garage that is off of Bishop street and choose the church option while parking.

Beautiful old Cathedral! Check another one off the list. So cool to find our Lord in the Eucharist no matter where we go.

A must visit for both the religious and non-believers as well.Nestled around modern tall buildings, along Bishop street, the Basilica Cathedral of Our Lady of Peace, the “oldest in continuous use” in the country, having been established August 15, 1943, the facade doesn’t really look like old except for its form. When you get inside however, you can see intricate old architecture. The Basilica, we were told by church people”, actually contains a first class relic of St Damien of Molokai (a body part of the saint) and the full remains of St.Marianne of Molokai. Ate Damien and Marianne both devoted their Lost years of their life taking care of lepers in Molokai (leper Colony) where, I was told by a parishioner, both of them contracting the disease themselves later on. We didn’t have the chance to see the relics/remains though. The old cathedral offers a serene ambience conducive to praying. Underground car park is available for free for church goers after having the parking g stub validated.

Are there no washrooms around the church grounds. I am facilitator from the Liturgical Music Ministry of the Catholic Church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Singapore. A friend was desperately looking for a toilet but was told; there was none. It’s Christmas Eve, and the church doors were locked. I was hoping to pray and offer my offerings that the Blessed Virgin Mary while I’m here. Seriously! Catholic Child.
