Last Supper Mural and Stations of the Cross

Upon completion of the present church building in 1959, former parishioners Kenneth and Rosemond Prince, both graduates of the Chicago Art Institute, painted a mural of the Last Supper inside the church over the entrance doors.  The mural, done with a Hawaiian flair, depicts Christ and the Twelve Apostles sitting around a table with a view of the Koolau Mountains in the background.  The Apostles represent the many different ethnicities of people living in Hawaii and there are two native Hawaiian women in the foreground.

The Princes also did the parish's Stations of the Cross in a cast-concrete relief.

St. Damien of Molokai Painting

​This beautiful portrait of St. Damien depicted in front of St. Philomena Church in Kalawao on the Kalaupapa peninsula of Molokai was painted by parishioner and artist, Joseph Aragon.  The painting was blessed and installed in the church on the Feast Day of St. Damien, May 10, 2018 and hangs above the high altar in the sanctuary.

Outdoor Statuary
Outside the church: St. George (in bell-tower niche); Our Lady of Grace (water fountain grotto)

The old plaster statue of St. George which had become cracked and damaged from exposure to the elements over the years, was replaced on May 1, 2018 with a new marble statue that was carved in Vietnam.

St. George Mosaic and Crucifix

On the front of the church building on the gable over the church portal is a mosaic by John F. Lochtefeld of St. George slaying a dragon.  Lochtefeld also created the unique crucifix inside the church above the tabernacle using wrought-iron rods.  Both were completed circa 1959.

Punch Needle Embroidery

On both sides of the sanctuary above the glass louvers are original “punch-embroidery” works of art by parishioner and artist Anna Cho, wife of retired deacon, Edward Cho.  The first work, Pentecost, was completed in August 1995 and hangs on the Makapu`u side of the sanctuary.  The second work, inspired by the gospel of Matthew 19: 13-15 (“Let the children come to me . . .”), was completed in December 2000 and hangs on the Olomana side of the sanctuary.
