A small wooden building was being used for Catholic church services when Father Damien arrived at Kalawao in 1873. He and patient helpers enlarged the church twice. Brother Joseph Dutton completed the work after Damien's death in 1889.This historic church's breathtaking physical setting and nearby graveyards illustrate both the tragedy and the peace of Kalawao.
