✨ The Magic of Generosity – Our Annual Pledge Drive Begins - Archived

03/11/2026/by Mary MacKay

If you happen to see a black top hat appearing during a Sunday service this month, you might wonder what kind of magic is happening at church?

In a magic show, a magician pulls surprising things out of a hat — a rabbit, flowers, something unexpected.

But the magic we’re talking about this spring isn’t stage magic.

It’s the quiet and real magic of generosity. The magic we create together…

Generosity is what allows a community like ours to exist and flourish. When people share their time, care, talents, and financial support, something remarkable happens: together we create a
place that is larger than any one of us.

Everything that happens in this congregation — worship, music, learning, social justice work, pastoral care, and community gatherings — is made possible through the generosity of our
members and friends.

In a magic show, it may appear that something comes from nowhere.
But we know the truth – the real magic isn’t in the hat.

When each of us gives what we can, something wonderful appears
a community that cares, grows, and thrives together.

And that is the real magic.

SAVE the DATE: Our Annual Pledge Dinner
As part of this year’s pledge drive, we will gather for a special evening together:

Saturday, April 4th 4:30 – 7:00 pm
The Magic of Generosity Pledge Dinner (and MAGIC!)
First Unitarian Church of Honolulu
Children’s program provided

This will be a celebratory spring gathering — a magical brunch-for-dinner filled with good food, conversation, and reflection on what this community means to each of us and how we sustain it together.

The real magic is what happens when people come together with love and generosity.

Please RSVP to Catherine Graham by Friday March 27.
