Full Text of ReadingsSaturday of the Third Week of Easter Lectionary: 278The Saint of the day is Saint Damien de Veuster of MolokaiSaint Damien de Veuster of Moloka'i's Story When Joseph de Veuster was born in Tremelo, Belgium, in 1840, few people in Europe had any firsthand knowledge of leprosy, Hansen's disease. By the time he died at the age of 49, people all over the world knew about this disease because of him. They knew that human compassion could soften the ravages of this disease. Forced to quit school at age 13 to work on the family farm, Joseph entered the Congregation of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary six years later, taking the name of a fourth-century physician and martyr. When his brother Pamphile, a priest in the same congregation, fell ill and was unable to go to the Hawaiian Islands as assigned, Damien quickly volunteered in his place. In May 1864, two months after arriving in his new mission, Damien was ordained a priest in Honolulu and assigned to the island of Hawaii. In 1873, he went to the Hawaiian government's leper colony on the island of Moloka'i, set up seven years earlier. Part of a team of four chaplains taking that assignment for three months each year, Damien soon volunteered to remain permanently, caring for the people's physical, medical, and spiritual needs. In time, he became their most effective advocate to obtain promised government support. Soon the settlement had new houses and a new church, school and orphanage. Morale improved considerably. A few years later, he succeeded in getting the Franciscan Sisters of Syracuse, led by Mother Marianne Cope, to help staff this colony in Kalaupapa. Damien contracted Hansen's disease and died of its complications. As requested, he was buried in Kalaupapa, but in 1936 the Belgian government succeeded in having his body moved to Belgium. Part of Damien's body was returned to his beloved Hawaiian brothers and sisters after his beatification in 1995. When Hawaii became a state in 1959, it selected Damien as one of its two representatives in the Statuary Hall at the US Capitol. Damien was canonized by Pope Benedict XVI on October 11, 2009. Reflection Some people thought Damien was a hero for going to Moloka'i and others thought he was crazy. When a Protestant clergyman wrote that Damien was guilty of immoral behavior, Robert Louis Stevenson vigorously defended him in an “Open Letter to Dr. Hyde.” Love the saints?

January 24, 2025 - Embark on a captivating musical journey weaving three compelling stories from Hawai‘i's Korean diaspora with performances by remarkable musicians, including the Grammy Award-winning violist Richard Yongjae O'Neill, the world renowned violinists Chee-Yun and Ignace Jang, and Keola Beamer. Songs of Love from Hawai‘i weaves together three stories from the long history of Korean diaspora in Hawai‘i, blending historical narratives with soul-stirring musical performances. From the fascinating tapestry of Korean immigrant history in Hawai‘i to a poignant life of Lim Ok Soon, a young Korean woman who came to Hawai‘i in 1912 as a picture bride, to a heartfelt musical tribute to the souls who found their resting place in Molokai's Kalaupapa, the film weaves a powerful elegy amidst the islands' natural beauty. After premiering at the 43rd Hawaii International Film Festival and airing on PBS Hawai‘i, the film had a successful nationwide theatrical run in Korea in 2024. On Korean American Day, join us for a conversation with filmmaker Jinyoung Lee.

This week on Vatican Insider, the interview segment is a repeat but it features a compelling storyteller and fascinating guest, Fr. Bill Petrie. At the time of our conversation, Fr. Bill, a priest of the Order of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary (SSCC), was pastor of St. Damien parish on the Hawaiian island of Molokai'i. We've been friends for a number of years and usually met at Kalaupapa on Molokai'i to talk about Sts. Damien, SSCC, and Marianne Cope and their work there with victims of leprosy. We met at the home of some mutual friends in Honolulu on the island of Oahu to talk about his 25 years of work with St. Mother Teresa! 25 years! Tons of insight and remarkable stories about this holy woman, whose feast day we celebrated recently. I cannot find my photo of our Honolulu encounter but there was a rainbow over Fr. Bill's head as we finished our talk! Fr. Bill now lives on Oahu. I have been focussing on St. Teresa recently, as you know from my recent interview segment when my guests were the producer and stars of the film, “Mother Teresa and Me.” The film was released by Fathom Events in select U.S. theaters for one night only on Oct. 5 2023.

Artist David Shepard designs aloha shirts with illustrations of Hawai‘i's native flora and fauna. David actually trained as a botanist, and one of his shirt designs was inspired by his experience working on the Kalaupapa peninsula with the hō‘awa plant. That species needs lots of help from conservationists in part because it was a favorite food of the ‘alala, or Hawaiian Crow, which is now extinct in the wild.More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.

VIDEO: Molokai l'isola maledetta ➜ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mxd1-KjrK30&list=PLolpIV2TSebVM7CoAHtiTvbPX4t2opTUUTESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜ https://www.bastabugie.it/it/articoli.php?id=7369SAN DAMIANO DE VEUSTER NON EBBE PAURA DI PORTARE CRISTO AI LEBBROSI DI MOLOKAIFiglio di contadini fiamminghi, dopo la scuola primaria nel suo paese, Damiano fu inviato a Braine-le-Comte per imparare la lingua francese. Seguendo le orme di uno dei suoi fratelli, entrò nel noviziato della Congregazione dei Sacri Cuori a Lovanio assumendo il nome di Damiano: dopo gli studi teologici e filosofici a Parigi, emise i voti perpetui il 7 ottobre 1860: suo fratello non poté realizzare il desiderio di viaggiare attivamente come missionario all'estero e Damiano fece suo il sogno del fratello.Il 19 marzo 1864, padre Damiano sbarcò nel porto di Honolulu, dove rimase a svolgere la sua missione: fu ordinato sacerdote il 24 maggio 1864 presso la Cathedral Basilica of Our Lady of Peace (Nostra Signora della Pace, a Honolulu), una chiesa fondata dal suo ordine religioso.Prestò servizio pastorale presso diverse parrocchie sull'isola di Oahu proprio mentre il regno delle Hawaii stava affrontando un periodo particolarmente difficile dal punto di vista sanitario: i commercianti stranieri ed i marinai avevano introdotto nell'arcipelago numerose nuove malattie che la popolazione locale non era in grado di affrontare. Migliaia di persone morirono a causa di mali come l'influenza e la sifilide, ma anche a causa di una grave epidemia di lebbra. Re Kamehameha IV relegò i lebbrosi del regno in alcune colonie situate nel nord dell'isola di Molokai.Padre Damiano nel 1865 fu assegnato alla Missione cattolica del nord Kohala, ma chiese al vicario apostolico, monsignor Luigi Maigret, il permesso per andare a Molokai.MOLOKAI, COLONIA DI MORTENel 1870 padre Damiano assunse il suo ruolo di sacerdote e medico dei lebbrosi nelle colonie: il 10 maggio 1873 arrivò presso la colonia di Kalaupapa.Il primo impatto con la realtà di Molokai fu terrificante: non esisteva nessuna legge, donne e bambini erano costretti alla prostituzione, i malati venivano abbandonati senza cure in una specie di ospedale dove i medici erano lebbrosi a loro volta, i morti erano lasciati insepolti.Il vescovo Maigret presentò Damiano ai coloni come un padre, e aggiunse, che li avrebbe amati a tal punto che non avrebbe esitato a divenire uno di loro: "vivere e morire con loro". I lebbrosi che vivevano nella colonia di Kalaupapa erano oltre 600. La prima cosa che fece Damiano fu di costruire una chiesa e di stabilire la parrocchia di Santa Filomena. Passava per i villaggi battezzando e promuovendo il culto al SS.mo Sacramento, del quale diceva: "Senza la presenza costante del nostro Divino Maestro nella mia povera cappella, io non avrei mai potuto perseverare, condividendo la mia sorte con quella dei lebbrosi di Molokai".Non fu solo un sacerdote; svolse bene anche il ruolo di dottore: curò ulcere, costruì case e letti, costruì bare e scavò tombe. Quella di Kalaupapa è stata definita una "colonia di morte", dove molte persone furono costrette a lottare per sopravvivere, dimenticate dal governo: l'arrivo di Damiano fu considerato una svolta per la comunità.Sotto la sua direzione, la comunità si dotò di leggi che regolassero la vita comune, costruì capanne e case decorose anche esteticamente, eresse scuole e creò fattorie, costruì cappelle, un orfanotrofio, refettori e dormitori.CAVALIERE DELL'ORDINE DI KALĀKAUARe Kalākaua delle Hawaii insignì padre Damiano del grado di Commendatore dell'Ordine reale di Kalākaua I e, quando la principessa Lili'uokalani visitò la colonia per consegnargli le insegne dell'onorificenza, rimase profondamente turbata nel vedere lo stato in cui vivevano i lebbrosi, tanto che non riuscì a completare il discorso ufficiale.Fu proprio la principessa a far conoscere al mondo i meriti del religioso: la sua fama si diffuse in Europa e negli Stati Uniti ed anche i protestanti americani e la Chiesa d'Inghilterra elargirono grandi somme di denaro per il missionario.Nel dicembre del 1884 Damiano, mettendo a bagno i suoi piedi nell'acqua calda, non poté sentirne il calore: si accorse così di aver contratto la lebbra.Nonostante la scoperta continuò a lavorare attivamente per portare a fine i suoi progetti fino alla morte: fu raggiunto comunque da quattro collaboratori: il sacerdote Luigi Lambert Conrardy, madre Marianna Cope, superiora delle suore francescane di Syracuse, Joseph Dutton, soldato americano in congedo, ritiratosi a causa di un matrimonio fallito per alcolismo e James Sinnett, infermiera di Chicago.Padre Damiano morì di lebbra nel 1889, all'età di 49 anni: fu prima seppellito a Molokai. Fu riportato in patria soltanto nel 1936 dalla goletta Mercator e il suo corpo fu trasferito a Lovanio (Belgio) vicino al villaggio in cui nacque.Padre Damiano è stato beatificato a Bruxelles da papa Giovanni Paolo II il 3 giugno 1995 e canonizzato da papa Benedetto XVI l'11 ottobre 2009.
Today's podcast is a monumental one for me! The Wind and The Reckoning was one of those iconic movies for me that could change the landscape of the film industry. When I first saw it, I was blown away by the performances of the actors, the amazing writing, the deeply moving story, and the artistic direction of this movie. Also, to see a mainstream film that was primarily spoken in Hawaiian, was very unheard of. The Wind and The Reckoning was a groundbreaking movie, and this was a ground-breaking podcast for me. I am pleased to have on the show, David Cunningham - the director of The Wind and The Reckoning, Jason Scott Lee - the actor who plays Ko'olau, and Lindsay Watson - the actress who plays Pi'ilani.We got to talk story about everything about The Wind and The Reckoning, and some of the inner details as to how this movie was shot. We talked about filming during the beginning of the pandemic as the movie was filmed in Fall 2020, how the casts had to learn how to speak Hawaiian on set, how some of the shots were filmed, the reactions to meeting the survivors of Kalaupapa, the experience of filming The Wind and The Reckoning, and much more.Mahalo nui loa to David Cunningham, Jason Scott Lee, and Lindsay Watson for being phenomenal guests on my podcasts! This was such a huge blessing for me, and I'm definitely still starstruck about meeting you all. Also, big mahalo to Tracy Larrua from Poi Planet, Fairai Richmond from Sight and Sound Productions, and executive producer Noah Hamilton for setting up this interview!The Wind and The Reckoning have an Indiegogo Campaign currently happening. The funds received from the campaign will go to distributing the film to be seen throughout the United States. If you wish to donate, I will leave a link on the bottom.

As you may already know, the Vatican websites have been up and down for several days, and are down, in fact, as I write this column. vaticannews.va is down but vatican.va is up, although the English language site has not been updated since November 30. A Vatican spokesman, Matteo Bruni, said Wednesday that the Holy See had taken down its main vatican.va website amid an apparent attempt to hack the site. Without expanding on what caused the problem, he said, “Technical investigations are ongoing due to abnormal attempts to access the site.” Numerous users online, in fact, noted that the site was unavailable as of Tuesday morning. The sites have been up and down since Wednesday afternoon, with many attempts producing “404” error messages. The link you see below has nothing to do with what I normally bring you daily in this column but the World Cup is on, and it's hard to ignore stories related to this global event that, every four years, mesmerizes most of the world's population for a month! I saw a story today that I found to be very interesting – all about the traditional Arab headgear that is taking the games by storm. It quotes one Swiss fan as saying he has “been surprised by how indulgent Qataris — and others from across North Africa and the Middle East — have been when it comes to foreigners adopting and appropriating local customs and clothing, something that is generally seen as disrespectful in Europe and North America.” Being an American who lives in Europe, it was that soccer fan's statement that drew my attention. I think you'll enjoy this piece and perhaps even learn something new. It's the World Cup's Hot Accessory. But Should Fans Wear It? – The New York Times (nytimes.com) VATICAN INSIDER: SERVANT OF GOD JOSEPH DUTTON: HAWAII'S THIRD SAINT? This week, in what is normally the interview segment, I've prepared a Special Report on Joseph Dutton. The past two weeks, you heard Fr. John Paul Kimes of Notre Dame University, which has a large archive on Dutton, speak about this Servant of God, and I take another look at Dutton's life this weekend. This layman, born in Stowe, Vermont, came to the island of Molokai at the age of 44 and then for 44 years worked alongside Sts. Damien and Marianne Cope caring for the victims of leprosy who had been exiled to live here by the King of Hawaii. As you know I am an official member of the Historical Commission for Dutton's cause for canonization and have been doing research here in Rome in the archives of the SSCC Fathers, priests of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary, the Order to which St. Damien and all his successor on Kalaupapa have belonged. The Dutton Guild ordered holy cards with a third class relic to be made in Rome. As you can see, if you ask for and receive a favor or miracle through the intercession of Servant of God Joseph Dutton, please write to The Joseph Dutton Guild, P.O. Box 3344, Honolulu, Hawaii 96801 (USA) Formerly known as the Sandwich Islands, the name was changed to Hawaiian Islands in 1840. It was a kingdom under Hawaiian rulers for just over 80 years, starting in 1810. Hawaii became a U.S. State in 1959. Hawaii now has two saints. Will she soon have a third in Joseph Dutton?
Join me this weekend on Vatican Insider for Part II of my off-the-cuff interview with Fr. John Paul Kimes, Canon law professor at the university of Notre Dame and member of the Historical Commission for the cause of canonization of Servant of God Joseph Dutton. Dutton, a layman was companion, caregiver and friend for 44 years, alongside Sts. Damien and Marianne Cope, to the victims of leprosy on Kalaupapa, a peninsula of the Hawaiian island of Molokai. Father John Paul and I spoke after a recent event in Honolulu for this cause of canonization, a gala, fund-raising luncheon that brought together just under 500 people from several Hawaiian islands. He gave an over-the-top keynote address at that event! This took place during a week in Hawaii in which I was also sworn in as an official member of the Historical Commission, a huge honor! Father Kimes, a riveting storyteller, tells us about the link between Notre Dame University and Joseph Dutton and explains what he has learned of Dutton by researching the university archives on this Servant of God. You'll love every minute of our conversation! Fr. John Paul had arrived in Honolulu the night before the luncheon and had to get to the airport almost immediately afterwards for his return flight so finding time – and a place! – to have this conversation was a real blessing, almost a miracle. The only available space, in fact, was in a small hallway off the main hallway not far from the room where our luncheon was. A table and two unoccupied chairs seemed to be waiting just for us. Not an acoustically perfect setting, however, so you'll hear some faint background conversation as people walk by in the main hall but Father John Paul is such a great storyteller that you may not even note it!

The only available space, in fact, was in a small hallway off the main hallway not far from the room where our luncheon was. A table and two unoccupied chairs seemed to be waiting just for us. Not an acoustically perfect setting, however, so you'll hear some faint background conversation as people walk by in the main hall but Father John Paul is such a great storyteller that you may not even note it!
What an exciting guest I have this weekend and next on Vatican Insider! I feature an off-the-cuff interview with Fr. John Paul Kimes, Canon law professor at the university of Notre Dame and member of the Historical Commission for the cause of canonization of Servant of God Joseph Dutton. Dutton, a layman was companion, caregiver and friend for 44 years, alongside Sts. Damien and Marianne Cope, to the victims of leprosy on Kalaupapa, a peninsula of the Hawaiian island of Molokai. Father John Paul and I spoke after a recent event in Honolulu for this cause of canonization, a gala, fund-raising luncheon that brought together just under 500 people from several Hawaiian islands. He gave an over-the-top keynote address at that event! This took place during a week in Hawaii in which I was also sworn in as a member of the Historical Commission, a huge honor! Father Kimes, a riveting storyteller, tells us about the link between Notre Dame University and Joseph Dutton and explains what he has learned of Dutton by researching the university archives on this Servant of God.

Full Text of ReadingsTuesday of the Fourth Week of Easter Lectionary: 280All podcast readings are produced by the USCCB and are from the Catholic Lectionary, based on the New American Bible and approved for use in the United States _______________________________________The Saint of the day is Saint Damien de Veuster of MolokaiWhen Joseph de Veuster was born in Tremelo, Belgium, in 1840, few people in Europe had any firsthand knowledge of leprosy, Hansen's disease. By the time he died at the age of 49, people all over the world knew about this disease because of him. They knew that human compassion could soften the ravages of this disease. Forced to quit school at age 13 to work on the family farm, Joseph entered the Congregation of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary six years later, taking the name of a fourth-century physician and martyr. When his brother Pamphile, a priest in the same congregation, fell ill and was unable to go to the Hawaiian Islands as assigned, Damien quickly volunteered in his place. In May 1864, two months after arriving in his new mission, Damien was ordained a priest in Honolulu and assigned to the island of Hawaii. In 1873, he went to the Hawaiian government's leper colony on the island of Moloka'i, set up seven years earlier. Part of a team of four chaplains taking that assignment for three months each year, Damien soon volunteered to remain permanently, caring for the people's physical, medical, and spiritual needs. In time, he became their most effective advocate to obtain promised government support. Soon the settlement had new houses and a new church, school and orphanage. Morale improved considerably. A few years later, he succeeded in getting the Franciscan Sisters of Syracuse, led by Mother Marianne Cope, to help staff this colony in Kalaupapa. Damien contracted Hansen's disease and died of its complications. As requested, he was buried in Kalaupapa, but in 1936 the Belgian government succeeded in having his body moved to Belgium. Part of Damien's body was returned to his beloved Hawaiian brothers and sisters after his beatification in 1995. When Hawaii became a state in 1959, it selected Damien as one of its two representatives in the Statuary Hall at the US Capitol. Damien was canonized by Pope Benedict XVI on October 11, 2009. Reflection Some people thought Damien was a hero for going to Moloka'i and others thought he was crazy. When a Protestant clergyman wrote that Damien was guilty of immoral behavior, Robert Louis Stevenson vigorously defended him in an “Open Letter to Dr. Hyde.” Love the saints?

We hear from U.S. Rep. Ed Case about a continuing resolution to keep the federal government operating, which includes money for dealing with the Red Hill water crisis; An Earthjustice attorney shares concerns about the military's plans filed this week to comply with the state's order to defuel the tank farm; A community raises concerns about proposed luxe development on Keaukaha coast; Looking to Kalaupapa's future when patients are no longer living at the historic settlement.
We talk history on today's Conversation, with Brother Joseph Dutton's long road to sainthood for his service in Kalaupapa, public input on the State Historic Preservation Division's five-year plan, and a remembrance for historian and author David Forbes.
In celebration of January as Kalaupapa Month, we revisit past interviews related to the secluded peninsula on Moloka'i where those diagnosed with leprosy, now known as Hansen's Disease, were sent to live in isolation starting in the late 1800s.
The Healthcare Association of Hawaii discusses how the surge in COVID cases is impacting hospitals and hospital staffing across the state; the chair of the Kailua Neighborhood Board talks resolving the dilemma on how to redraw voting districts; and a descendant of a Kalaupapa resident shares efforts to preserve the memory of those exiled there.
For the last episode of 2021, we are headed to the Hawaiian island of Molokai, home to one of the most remote peninsulas in the world. For over a century, thousands of people suffering from ma'i ho'oka'awale, or the “separating sickness” were ripped from their families and forced to the Kalaupapa peninsula, doomed to spend their lives in exile. The dark history of this National Park Historic Site is lightened by the resilience of the native Hawaiian people, their enduring spirit and their efforts to protect and preserve this sacred place. We love our National Parks and we know you do too but when you're out there, remember to enjoy the view but watch your back.

At one point in history, Leprosy, now known as Hansen's Disease, was a highly feared condition that was avoided at all costs. Before antibiotics had been discovered, many governments thought their only option was isolation for those afflicted. In Hawaii, this misconception led to the formation of the Kalaupapa leper colony. Tune in to hear Elisabeth recount the history of this place and the surprising condition it remains in today.
La colonia era, en realidad, un enorme mortuorio. La mayoría de la gente entraba enferma y acababa siendo enterrada en un enorme cementerio, en el que la mayoría de lápidas ni siquiera reflejaban el nombre del fallecido. Prácticamente todos los días moría alguien. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

In 1863, Hawaii recognised leprosy an official public health threat. In 1865, a law of segregation was enacted forcing sufferers to Kalaupapa on Molokai island. As fate would have it, St Damien of Molokai (canonized in 2009) was there to serve. His role was that of a model Priest and his feats were super-human. However, local legends are not always a perfect reflection of historical events, and Damien the man can be lost in St Damien the hero. Leprosy is a terrible disease but it is much less contagious than commonly thought. Its historical significance may have heightened due to inter-language Biblical translation over centuries. In any event, it is a fascinating disease and one worth knowing more about.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Leprosy probably brings to mind skin falling from the bone and people cast away into quarantined colonies. It is among the most stigmatized diseases in history, that I can think of.

Damien contracted Hansen’s disease and died of its complications. As requested, he was buried in Kalaupapa, but in 1936 the Belgian government succeeded in having his body moved to Belgium. Part of Damien’s body was returned to his beloved Hawaiian brothers and sisters after his beatification in 1995. When Hawaii became a state in 1959, it selected Damien as one of its two representatives in the Statuary Hall at the US Capitol. Damien was canonized by Pope Benedict XVI on October 11, 2009. Reflection Some people thought Damien was a hero for going to Moloka’i and others thought he was crazy. When a Protestant clergyman wrote that Damien was guilty of immoral behavior, Robert Louis Stevenson vigorously defended him in an “Open Letter to Dr. Hyde.” Saint of the Day Copyright Franciscan Media
In the late 1800s, Hansen’s disease (also known as leprosy) was reaching epidemic proportions in the Hawaiian islands. Bacteria cause nerve damage in patients and can lead to crippling of the hands and feet, paralysis, and blindness. At the time, there was no cure and no known effective treatment, and health officials had no idea how the disease was spreading. This frightened officials in Hawaii, and in a desperate act to save their native populations, isolation seemed to be the only answer.
Episode 1452: Our article of the day is Kalaupapa, Hawaii.
In this week's episode, Lizbeth De Los Reyes and Ana Heermann discuss Ana's weekend into middle Missouri to find wild horses, (yes, you read that right!) and then sink their teeth into the planning they did for their upcoming trip to the beautiful island of Maui, Hawaii! Liz's friend planned a destination wedding to the amazing island, and Ana is getting to tag along as her plus one. The girls cover how they planned their flights, why their stop in LA was advantageous to their pocket books, and some of the sites they are excited to see, like whale watching, kayaking, snorkeling, the Maui Brewing Company, how to do the sunrise hike in Haleakalā National Park, and the road to Hana. They also discuss hang-gliding, and the leper colony Kalaupapa, which are two things they would like to do, but maybe not on such a short trip.

Today marks the 40th anniversary of the National Park Service's presence at Kalaupapa on Molokai. COVID-19 has forced a change in plans to commemorate the milestone. Tours and access has been curtailed for most of the year. Today we hear from the park superintendent about what its presence in the historic settlement has meant as we plan for the day when the last resident leaves what has been home for so many.

The idea of leprosy may evoke feelings of fear in many of us; fear of contagion, fear of outbreak. Though for most of us this idea is far removed - the stuff of history. But on the beautiful windswept shores of the island of Molokai, this history is alive and well. It was here in this paradise that nearly 8,000 men, women and children were exiled and quarantined beginning in the 1860s. In this episode, Jen will explain the history and treatment of leprosy as well as the quarantine at Kalaupapa. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Fred E. Woods researched the story of leprosy in Hawaii, where the Board of Health exiled people with Hansen's disease (leprosy) to Kalaupapa, an isolated spot on the island of Molokai. Neither fatal nor highly infectious, leprosy became treatable in the 1940s when Dr. Hansen discovered an antibiotic cure for the pathogen. Though not contagious, it still managed to rip apart families, sometimes indefinitely. Fortunately, more than 400 “kokua” (help) came to the rescue as volunteers. Many stayed in Kalaupapa and made their life among the sick. Two of the most famous kokua included Jonathan Hawaii Napela and Father Damien. Both bore ecclesiastical duties. The former refused to be separated from his sick wife, and the other came to fulfill his priestly duty. Both contracted leprosy and died in the colony. After collecting 58 first-person accounts, Dr. Woods says he found a "story of community—community unlike anywhere else in the world—not a space divided by borders and barriers or fences and enclosures, but a place which beckons every race and religion, every color and creed...The cost was suffering—suffering together.” Today, all but 10 residents of the community have passed away. But for decades the people of Kalaupapa worshiped, worked, and recreated side by side. Woods says, "Kalaupapa is relevant in any age and serves as a reminder of the importance of erecting bridges instead of barriers, finding common ground instead of a battleground, and in valuing one another regardless of ethnicity and religiosity. It provides a vivid illustration of the need for all people to not only join hands, but to look outside the circle of their faith's community to embrace the universal message to love one another, regardless of our differences.” He continues, “Such an ecumenical philosophy of inclusiveness seems to be desperately needed in a world that suffers from societal diseases such as selfishness, pride, bigotry, and prejudice. It is hoped that the message of the Kalaupapa community will serve as a reminder of the acute need for each of us to generate light instead of heat...." In 2008, Hawaiian officials issued a formal apology to the people of Kalaupapa. In the same spirit, a long-time resident Auntie Catherine says in her interview, “Let it go. Forget about it. Turn a new leaf. Start all over. That's what God wants us to do. Don't hold grudges.” BUY Reflections of Kalaupapa BUY Kalaupapa: The Mormon Experience in an Exiled Community WATCH: Documentary: "The Soul Kalaupapa: Voices in Exile" Music Credit Sound Editing Credit
Aloha! Pehea 'oe? E komo mai o Moloka'i! This week, we're heading to my favorite place in the world--the Hawaiian islands, to a peninsula paradise that was once hell on earth for thousands of people. This was the land where most men were afraid to go--Kalaupapa, the Given Grave. Creative commons sound effects/music courtesy of Zapsplat.com
This week, Paul travels to the island paradise of Molokai, Hawaii. From 1866 to 1969 thousands of men, women, and children diagnosed with leprosy were forcibly exiled to this island to die here in anonymity. Two Catholic saints, Fr. Damien de Veuster and St. Marianne Cope ministered to them, built their houses, soothed their wounds, and helped them live lives of meaning and worth. Join Paul in his white knuckle flight to the small Pacific island, and walk rainy and windswept paths in the rugged footsteps where St. Damien trod. Travel across the peninsula from Kaluapapa to Kalawao, surrounded on three sides by treacherous surf, and on one side by 3000 foot cliffs. Listen to tour guide Ian from Father Damien Tours as he recounts emotional stories of the citizens afflicted with this horrific disease, lost and forgotten on this island.
