Historic Catholic Church Miraculously Untouched by Maui Wildfires
The Gateway Pundit reported on the devastating wildfires in Hawaii that have left at least 80 dead with approximately 1,000 people still unaccounted for.
Maria Lanakila Catholic Church, which opened in 1846, was miraculously untouched amidst the devastation surrounding it after wildfires ravaged the area.
When the camera pans around, the rest of the town — the largest tourist destination on Maui — looks like a smoldering hellscape of rubble.
Viewers hailed the jaw-dropping miracle as an act of God.
“A def sign from God,” one TikTok user wrote, adding, “he is with you. hold on and keep that faith. we are all praying for you.”
The Pillar spoke with Msgr. Terrence Watanabe, pastor of the nearby parish of St. Anthony’s Who shared,”Basically what we know is the fact that all of Lahaina Town has been consumed by fire. It’s all gone. The church, Maria Lanakila [Our Lady of Victory], is still standing, as is the rectory. The school’s been a little bit affected. They’re still not allowing people to drive into Lahaina. And then 36 people are dead, that they’ve reported, and about 271 facilities have been impacted, not to mention all the cars that are still on the streets, that also got burned.”

Thank you, Jesus, for sending a message to the world! Is the world listening? Time will tell, and time is slipping away!

Confirmed: The Church in Maui that didn’t burn, Maria Lanakila, which is Hawaiian for Our Lady of Victory, was… wait for it… the Latin Mass parish. Our Lady of Victory, pray for us!

About Maui Latin MassOur group began work among Roman Catholics on Maui in 2006 and received the full blessing of the Bishop, Lary Silva in 2010. We, the members of the Maui Latin Mass community, pledge our fidelity to the Roman Catholic Church and to her teachings as handed down by the Magisterium through the centuries. We dedicate ourselves and the works of our apostolate to Our Blessed Mother, Lady of Victory, the Mother of God. We place our efforts under the patronage of St. Joseph, Patron of the Universal Church and offer all we do in the name of Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost for the greater glory and honor of God. We invite all who are interested to join in our work.-----------------------------------------------+Important notice+Due to the recent Moto proprio issued by the Holy Father Pope Francis on July 16 2021 regarding the abrogation of former laws, and newly revised restictions on the clelebration of the Traditional Latin Mass, I have spoken to Father Kuriakuse on the situation. He informed me that Bishop Silva has written to the priests in the diocese that offer the Latin Mass and has confirmed that his intentions are to continue the celebrations, and to let the faithful know of this. As of this time the Latin Mass at Blessed Sacrament (Oahu) and at Maria Lanakila (Maui) shall continue on as usual.
