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 cultures of Hawaii and there are two Hawaiian women in the foreground.

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