Philosopher David Malo, who built this church in
1852, was the third Hawaiian ordained to the Christian ministry. He was also co-author
of Hawaii's first constitution and an early spokesperson for Hawaiian rights. While most
of Malo's original church has been dismantled, a 3ft-high section of the walls still stands
beside a palm grove. Pews are lined up inside the stone walls.
Open-air services are held here at 9am Sunday by Trinity Episcopal Church-by-the-
Sea. It's really quite beautiful.
