Minister Alice Inoe
I was ordained as a minister in August of 2001 by Arthur Pacheco, the pastor of the Church of Eternal Light. I hold the title of “Reverend” and in September of 2001 became licensed to perform weddings in the state of Hawaii.
I’ve been a member of the Church of Eternal Light since 1996. It is a non-denominational organization located in Kaimuki, dedicated to spreading both ancient and modern spiritual truths. The main reason that I pursued this path to become a minister was so that I could be a part of one of the most important steps in a couple’s life, their wedding day.

Thy will be done, on earth

Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And not into temptation but deliver us from evil, for †
Thine is the kingdom
and the power and the glory, forever and ever.
Amen.

No ka mea, nou ke aupuni, a me ka mana, a me ka hoonaniia, a mau loa aku.

THE PRAYER OF ST. FRANCIS OF ASISI

Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace,
Where there is hatred, let me sow love,
Where there is injury, pardon,
where there is doubt, faith,
Where there is despair, hope,
Where there is darkness, light,
where there is sadness, joy

On marriage

But let there be spaces in your togetherness,
And let the winds of the heavens dance
between you.

Love one another, but make not a bond
of love:

Let it rather be a moving sea between
the shores of your souls.

Fill each other's cup but drink not from
one cup.

Give one another of your bread but eat
not from the same loaf.

Sing and dance together and be joyous,
but let each one of you be alone,
Even as the strings of a lute are alone
though they quiver with the same music.

Give your hearts, but not into each
other's keeping.

For only the hand of Life can contain
your hearts.

And stand together yet not too near
together:

For the pillars of the temple stand apart,
And the oak tree and the cypress grow
not in each other's shadow.

-excerpt from The Prophet, by Kahlil Gibran

Love

Love gives naught but itself and takes
naught but from itself.

Love possesses not nor would it be
possessed;
For love is sufficient unto love.

When you love you should not say,
"God is in my heart," but rather, "I am
in the heart of God."

And think not you can direct the course
of love, for love, if it finds you worthy,
directs your course.

Love has no other desire but to fulfill
itself.

But if you love and must needs have
desires, let these be your desires:

To melt and be like a running brook
that sings its melody to the night.

To know the pain of too much tenderness.

To be wounded by your own understanding
of love;
And to bleed willingly and joyfully.

To wake at dawn with a winged heart
and give thanks for another day of loving;
To rest at the noon hour and meditate
love's ecstasy;
To return home at eventide with gratitude;
And then to sleep with a prayer for the
beloved in your heart and a song of praise
upon your lips.

-excerpt from The Prophet, by Kahlil Gibran
