Lahaina Jodo Mission

Lahaina Jodo Mission, founded in 1912, is a historic Buddhist temple located at Puunoa Point in Lahaina, Hawaii, an area rich in cultural significance as the first capital of the Hawaiian Islands. The temple, which features a stunning Great Buddha and Temple Bell, was rebuilt in 1970 after a fire destroyed the original structure, with contributions from the local community and Japanese craftsmen.

The Mission aims to foster a greater understanding and appreciation of Buddhism among visitors of all faiths, honoring the Japanese immigrants who established it. As a tax-exempt charitable organization, Lahaina Jodo Mission welcomes support to continue its legacy and community outreach initiatives.
